The outside building is very elegant. The security is very thorough. The only problem is that when we checked in we ordered 3 bedrooms but cannot find one of them. It took awhile but finally figured it out. The room is small but it was very clean and has all the amenities any person needs. The price ware very decent and affordable. The hotel’s location is very convenient, near the China town, and more because it is also located near the cruise ship. I can honestly say, I will come back and stay in this hotel anytime I am in the area.

There's a outdoor area by the Family Mart where you can look out at the city view. Quite relaxing. Also the fact that there are two Family Mart housed in this APA is very convenient. Always got to get my hot coffee there. The spa is certainly a treat. I go there everyday and it's absolute must try for those new to the onsen experience. Public transit is easily accessible. Certainly a resort I will return to.
