For a day of sight-seeing before a business meeting, this place was wonderful. Parking at the location is cheap, only a block from Olvera Street, which was surprisingly lovely (especially the plaza with its big trees and gazebo--reminded me of the zocalo in Oaxaca. Union Station is only two blocks away and Chinatown, the Disney Concert Hall and the Music... More

Good for an overnight as it has union station, convenience store, Chinatown and Mexican district so close. Room was large, everything worked in the room and breakfast was simple. Also contained a mini fridge and ice machine on each floor.

The three best things about this 4-floor hotel are its location - an easy walk (just about 2 blocks) from Union Station, in the center of Chinatown and close to downtown. Right next store is a convenience store selling coffee & gelato, plus the usual fare. Check-in was easy. There's free wi-fi, but be sure to ask the desk clerk... More

Hotel is nice, my room... More

I spent 5 nights here in May and it quite possibly rates as the worst hotel I've visited (and I visit the developing world heaps)!!!! Rooms are like you have stepped into a time machine and are hugely dated. Bathroom wasn't clean and even though serviced I think all they did was pour some bleach around for the smell of... More

The place is solidly built and the rooms clean. I really like the spacious and tiled bathroom. A great value in a... More

After booking online and trying to get confirmation the only thing I received was an email from MR WOO saying what a great choice I had made? Details of my... More

We didn't expect the Ritz, for what we were paying, but everything we needed (proximity to Union Station, good parking, courteous staff, cleanliness of room) was provided. The room maid went out of her way to meet extra requests. The staff were very helpful and security conscious for our parking needs. For price, proximity to Union Station (-3 blocks), convenient...

From airport I rode flyway bus to union station. From bus stop, through lobby of union station, totally I walked 10 minutes to this hotel. Room facilities are very old but room is clean and acceptable. You can eat in China Town or Mexico street. Breakfast was simple but nice. In Union station information center you can get free maps.
