Property needs some love. Staff were great but amenities limited, but you can easily access whatever you want or need on the Upper Westside. It is a place to sleep. Lobby is the only community space.

This is a very sweet little spot on the upper west side. It’s one block to the subway, so it’s very easy to utilize public transportation. It’s quiet and nicely appointed. There are plenty of neighborhood, restaurants, including in the building : Nice Marin. If you want to be uptown, this gives you the feel of being in a real residential neighborhood. I would return.
