Clean and we loved the king size bed! We had a great dinner at Gino’s East across the road. So easy to get to the subway and wherever you wanted to go. Loved the coffee and water available in the lounge area. Close walk to Tilly’s bagels which I recommend!

Despite the unfortunate hiccup of a malfunctioning air conditioning unit and the struggle with an older window, the helpful staff at the stylish but older hotel made the stay more bearable. Their offer of a breakfast credit was a thoughtful gesture, which helped alleviate the inconvenience.
