I liked the atmosphere of the hotel and its location. Bathroom sink is very small. There’s barely any space inside the small refrigerator and I could only fit small water bottles in there after taking out the racks. Other than that, I’m pleased with my stay there. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I had a room in the inside part of the building, and it was very quiet at night.

This stay was exactly as expected. Clean quiet place to sleep each night. Great location near subways and food choices. Safe and easy to walk to other neighborhoods. We enjoyed using the lounge area one afternoon to take a little break and not be in our room. Price seemed fair for room quality and location.
