The location was really close to the places I wanted to see while I was in town. The staff was really accommodating and helpful. The restaurant connected to hote was really good and convenient before we had to drive back to airport. Even though i didn’t want to pay for $60 valet, it was really easy when I needed the car to take a drive. I also didn’t like the rooms windows, seems they are single pane and you get a lot of outdoor noise at night.

Clean and we loved the king size bed! We had a great dinner at Gino’s East across the road. So easy to get to the subway and wherever you wanted to go. Loved the coffee and water available in the lounge area. Close walk to Tilly’s bagels which I recommend!

Despite the unfortunate hiccup of a malfunctioning air conditioning unit and the struggle with an older window, the helpful staff at the stylish but older hotel made the stay more bearable. Their offer of a breakfast credit was a thoughtful gesture, which helped alleviate the inconvenience.
