Our stay was overall very good! Only things to complain about is that the air conditioning only turned on when we had a room key inside the room, and even then it didnt work very well. Our room ended up being 80° most nights. Also, BE CAREFUL when getting in the bathtub if someone else showered before you. It is SO slippery and there is no texture or mat on the bottom. I ended up giving my boyfriend the scare of his life when i fell haha. The area is perfect for night life, but be aware that there will be a lot of loud music going on outside in the middle of the night all the way until 5am or so. If you are a light sleeper, maybe look somewhere else. The subway is literally a 5 minute walk away though, so it was super convenient since we were constantly up and doing something in the city during the day. Overall, I'd rate the place a 4 out of 5 and would definitely consider staying here again!

The hotel is a 3 star hotel but it definitely needed to be a minimum of 4 star to be fair. Room is spacious and it was everything that anyone can need and in very good shape.

the worst stay i’ve ever experienced.

what a nightmare! there’re construction going on at the hotel but didn’t get informed at the check in. it was unbearably loud and impossible to stay in the room during my stay. they shouldn’t accommodate any guests at that condition.
