AH Gateway is a very nice hotel located around the theater of all shopping you need. My junior suite and Superior King Suite was great. I will always like staying at this hotel. The front desk staff is amazing and professional.

房間挺大,但是隔音效果一般,可能是因為靠馬路,晚上有些炒。早餐選擇很多,很豐盛,酒店有直通gateway mall的通道,逛街吃飯很方便。

The rooms are quite nice, but i had a horrible night sleep due to the smell that was in my room. The smell was a smell of something rotten and the extra blanket that they give was very dusty, smelly and overall dirty to me.
