Location is awesome but the room’s TV and phone were both broken, staff fixed the TV eventually. When we arrived we got an automated text message that said we could text with any questions, but nobody actually monitors it. It was clean and affordable.

The location is excellent, in the heart of Little Italy. Many choices of restaurants nearby. The bed quality is good, very comfortable. However, there are a couple things I would like to see improvement if staying again. The shower is from the ceiling straight down, but there is no shower cap provided. When arriving late and tired in evening, don’t want to wet the hair but just a quick shower. The breakfast is just on a lobby counter without sitting area, we took the food back to the room but there is only one chair for a room with king size bed, which doesn’t make sense. The breakfast ends at 9:30, but before 9 am, most of the food gone, only a few apples, oranges, and chocolate croissants, plus some dairy products in the frig. Not even regular non-sweet breads.

The hotel is clean and the staff very friendly. Only thing I would complain is a smell to a cleaning product, I am not good with aromas. But I would definitely stay there again.

Definitely OK and convenient.

The place is very convenient to mass transportation and little Italy. It was clean and quiet. The room was small but well setup. A disappointment was that Hotels.com listed gym access that did not exist anymore. There was a nice contental breakfast and helpful folk on the desk.
