Our stay was very good. The room was ready earlier than scheduled. Check in was polite and hassle free. Room was clean, secure and well lit. Also had refrigerator. Shame the adjacent restaurant had closed. Looked like it had been a very nice place to eat. We chose this hotel for easy access to train and subway station. Grocery store also within walking distance which has a walk away breakfast-coffee counter inside.

room 606, comfortable beds, no bed bugs, corner room, top floor, ac cold, balcony absolutely huge incredible balcony; amazing front desk staff that remembers us staying there through the years… very beautiful and kind front desk manager or owner in the mornings. Only downfall is the cigarette smoke everywhere; as non- smokers it is beyond brutal and we had trouble breathing and sleeping because of it! However it’s our go to hotel ANYTIME we are in the area! Thank you! Great job for housekeeping keeping the rooms spotlessly clean!

Perfect location. This was our second stay. Same price. The first stay we had a 5th floor balcony with a city view. On this second stay, same room type was booked, but this time the room was smaller and the balcony had no view. The view is terrific, so if this is important to you, negotiate accordingly.

2 min from metro station which was great for reaching the town centre. The metro lines are really well connected . Was a little bit nousy at night, but if you are a heav sleeper it won t bother you. One of the blancket was dirty, but they did change the sheets daily. For the price, location can t really complain. The reception staff were very kind and helpful
