Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was excellent, with plenty of nearby restaurants and historical attractions, but the room had some cosmetic issues. The service was exceptional, with helpful staff, but the dining options were somewhat limited.
The hotel provided a pretty clean and comfortable stay with fast and reliable free wifi. While the service was friendly and accommodating, there were issues with reservation cancellation. The location was high and bustling with businesses, although accessing the subway required extra effort. The dining experience was excellent, offering one of the best complimentary breakfasts, but lacked seafood options. Overall, a value-for-money choice with a few minor hiccups.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but they could use some refurbishment as they are showing their age.

The hotel was spot on with its downtown location, allowing us to walk to all the great places to eat. The rooms were perfect in size, quiet, and very clean, although a kettle would have been nice for warm water. The service was extremely helpful and engaging, always putting a smile on our faces. However, the inability to issue an invoice with correct data was a bit of a letdown. The dining experience offered a great selection of food, with the highlight being the pancake-making machine for a quick treat. Overall, the hotel provided a great stay with some minor inconveniences.
