Hotel is nice and staff are friendly. Great location and walking distance to many attractions. Only issue was the road noise, but overall I'd stay here again.

Nice hotel but AC was not available in the entire hotel for the duration of our stay. We were told it was a “shoulder” season so no AC. Meanwhile, it was 25 degrees C (80 F) inside due to hot summer-like weather outside. The staff was not helpful and only after several complaints offered us a fan.

Great hotel would definitely return and excellent

I was really worried about this hotel having read some bad reviews just before we came but needn't have been. Hotel was excellent staff amazing and spotlessly clean. Brilliant location too and very safe area to walk and commute. Lots of room in junior apartment with separate kitchen area

The property, even-though it was in the 70s and 80s could not turn off the heat because they were not due to “change over” their HVAC system for one to two weeks. It was so darn hot that we had to move to a different hotel. The rooms were semi-clean. The manager, though, Randolph, was FANTASTIC!

Nice hotel with a very convenient location in midtown east. Friendly staff, very clean and comfortable save for the the shower water: which was, at first thermo nuclear hot temperature that then seemed to fix itself on the last night. I would recommend.
