Everyone was super friendly, helped with recommendations and service was excellent. It’s right by the subway station but there’s lots of walkable things to do. Hotel is clean, drink and food are very good as well. We were there for 4 days and definitely couldn’t fit everything in… we will be back!

When we checked into the room the shower was backed up with water and dirt. We asked for a different room because it was disgusting and smelled but they didn’t have another room available because they were fully booked.
