The location is excellent, especially because it's very close to the subway station. There are also plenty of great restaurants and food options nearby. Most importantly, the staff are incredibly kind, and the hotel provides a comfortable and cozy atmosphere. I had a wonderful stay and truly enjoyed my time here. Thank you as always for your warm hospitality! 😊

This is a LOVE hotel. There are literally free condoms in the hallways. The towels are the size of a piece of paper, the walls are VERY thin, and the mattress is harder than the tile floor. I have bruises from trying to sleep on my side.
Condoms provided in the hallway next to the microwave.
Mold in the bathroom
The provided robes had holes and tears in them.
Both robes were practically falling apart.

This is not a hotel. It’s a motel Please do not list this as hotel. Pictures is misleading on line. The hall way is fall of smoke Tile in room is broken. Body towel is side of hand towel. The place feels like motel. Want to move to another hotel but it’s non refundable. So we suck it up for 3 nights. Feels disgusting.
