The rooms are clean, the bed was comfortable, the bedding and sheets were lovely. Had a wonderful view of the pocket park in front of the hotel. Check-in was fast and efficient. The doormen were courteous. The price was perfect. The location is excellent!
Enjoyed my stay. Incredibly nice and helpful staff! There were a couple of maintenance issues in my room and they fixed them so promptly that I was impressed! Great location. I can’t say enough about the staff, from top to bottom excellent. No coffee maker, but Starbucks on the corner.
