The staff at the property are friendly and serviceable, but prior to our stay never answered emails with basic questions. Also the room was very small and outdated, tv size was the same as my laptop and there are very few outlets to charge various devices at the same time.

Overall had a great time staying there..

Excellent location! Close to a lot of bars, clubs, shopping and restaurants as well as a subway line. I did think it was strangethat there was no attempt to perform room service while we were staying there. It was only four days so it wasn’t a big deal and I don’t like being disturbed, but I would’ve thought that they would’ve tried to clean the room it at some point.. it’s a value hotel so I wasn’t expecting anything fancy. There was also an issue with the room key. We went back twice and had the key even replaced, but at any given time there was only one key that worked.
