It was only a short stay for one day after my late night flight, and I left at around 6am for the further sightseeing.
Location is great, not really far from the metro station (around 10mins walk) which is on the same line as Union Station. Not far from all the touristy spots (central library, walt disney music hall, central library, central market...etc) in downtown, all walking distance!
It's located in a building with elevator, with a pool (unfortunately I didn't have chance to check it) and the staff is super helpful and friendly!
Room is nice, not big very pretty functional, and there is a shared bathroom in the room.
Overall this was a very great experience with the price! Highly recommended to those travellers with budgets.

I enjoyed my stay at Freehand. Coffee shop and comfortable seating in the lobby (and some beautiful butterfly not so comfy seating, too). Has a very organic vibe with lots of plants, which I love. The rooftop restaurant and bar had an interesting crowd. Service was hit or miss. I'm not sure how often people actually eat there, but the ceviche was very good, and I'm a bit of a picky eater.

We gave our car to the valet, and the valet hit and scratched it. He also claimed he didn’t do anything. Since the car was a rental, we had to pay $400, and nothing was done about it.
