"The room was clean enough but certainly not to the degree of other hotels. The sides of the stove were caked with dust and years of grease/food (clearly it’s not pulled out when the room is cleaned). The common areas weren’t particularly clean either, probably emphasized by the dated carpets. The room was dated and although there have clearly been efforts to improve the space, the quality of the improvements are quite poor (for example, a thick textured wallpaper in the bathroom that is peeling at the edges, looks quite dingy; the toilet paper holder wasn’t secured to the wall). A few of the light switches didn’t work, along with the main living room lamp, leaving the space feeling pretty dark. Despite all this, the staff were very kind and accommodating, which was really the redeeming factor, along with the location and accessibility to the subway. "
