I didn't overlook it, but the location left a lot to be desired. I found the Aloft to suit my needs well. Acceptable price, large rooms (I paid for a larger room), and a good location. There was a small Night Market literally behind the hotel and extremely easy access to the subway. It wasn't "luxury", but it was quality and convenience at a reasonable price.
