Nice and clean property. Decent amenities. A lot of shopping and restaurants in the area. Really conveniently that the B1 leads to the subway. It would be nicer to have more laundry machines and a bigger laundry and ice area. It would also be convenient if we could place our dirty towels and trash outside and get new ones every day without having to get an entire room cleaning. Overall, great property to stay at!
