The hotel takes less than 5 minutes to walk to Berkeley School, and the subway is within 3 minutes, and there are many restaurants nearby, and the hotel breakfast is excellent. The staff was friendly, the hotel was safe, and it was so nice.

The staff was very accommodating...the house keeping manager came to help me after my son got sick and was so sweet and helpful. She literally cleaned up from my sick son and went above and beyond to help me! I tried to give her a tip and she said it was her job... A huge thanks again to that lovely lady!!! Hotel is clean and feels safe and i love the welcome gift and great breakfast!!! I will stay again!!!

Centrally located. Easy, friendly check-in. Well appointed but would have liked some water in the room and fold out sofa bed is pretty bad, so I would not recommend the suite if you plan on using that.
