i appreciated the subway access directly from the hotel basement. it provided convenient transport around town. the room had complimentary bottled water daily! it was a nice touch given the weather.

The gym required an extra daily fee. This surprised me. the iron and ironing board were only available upon request.

excellent locationcomfortable roombathroom suppliesworn out hotelhard bedfresh air

the location is excellent. I found the room comfortable and clean. the bathroom had a lot of supplies.

the hotel is a bit worn out. the beds ARE super hard so make sure you like that. most importantly, there was no fresh air in the rooms. the air is already very dry and becomes close to impossible when it is not possible to open windows. air conditioning is the only source of air in the rooms.
