Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The neighborhood was excellent. The hotel was near the Lexington Ave subway so it was easy to get around. No bar or restaurant because of renovations but plenty of dining options were nearby. The first morning I was there, there was no soap in the shower soap dispensary. The hotel fixed it but this should have been checked before I checked in. Also my room was never cleaned. I was only there 2 nights but still someone should have come in to clean it. Despite the two issues above the pros outweighed the cons so I would give this hotel a second try .
