GREAT bar and EXCELLENT, FRIENDLY staff! I missed the fine print that the bathrooms/showers are shared. Small college-type dorm rooms, but nice quiet neighborhood.Close to the fish market and Darling Harbor. The pub can't be beat. Very friendly locals, just know you don't have a private bath.

Very friendly staff and great location, close to everything, but still residential and relaxing. We were here in the fall, and I'd recommend fall or spring. The rooms do not have climate control. Windows, fans, and space heaters are all available, but I'd not recommend the hotel if climate control is essential to you.
