I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were fairly noisy due to road traffic, but they were comfortable and offered a Manhattan view. Being close to the subway and enjoying a good hot breakfast were definite pluses. However, being on the 1st floor facing the vending area was not ideal.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were a bit smaller than expected based on the photos, and housekeeping only changed the bed sheets on the day before my check-out after a week-long stay. However, the staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful, especially Issa, who made my reservation process and stay seamless. The location was convenient, just a couple of subway stops away from Manhattan with plenty of nearby stores. The dining experience exceeded my expectations, offering a good selection to start the day. The facilities were satisfactory.
