This was a cheap option and you will get what you pay for. On the positive, great location close to train, restaurants, and entertainment. If you’re not spending time in the room, this is great. The downsides were: uncomfortable bed and only three terrible pillows, small space, light fixtures broken, sticky floor, and the walls are paper thin. Also do not book on first floor(obv) you will be up all night.

This place was great to stay at for the location and area. Lots and lots of food/bar options and the variety of cuisine is great. Also lots of shopping options. And it is right next to a stop for the subway which was very convenient. We did have black hairs all over our floor when we arrived, which were not our hairs. The mattress was not great, and the shower door didn’t close all the way so water leaked out. There’s one small mirror in whole room so that was struggle to get ready. And we saw the reviews about it being loud so we knew it was coming, but we can attest that it was loud if you have a street view as it is right next to a ro

There was no air conditioning, so it was unpleasantly warm in the room. I can't imagine staying here in the summer. It would be unbearable. A small unit in the room would be a massive improvement, especially since it is small, it wouldn't take much to cool it off.

Literally in the middle of everything which is a huge plus. Cleanliness could be better. There were pubes in the shower next to the shampoo they provide, and tons of messed up ceiling tiles in the restroom. Places for weirdos to put cameras… Water in the shower ran brown for about 5mins before clearing up. Room was extremely small, but I wasn’t in there much anyway.
