This is a POD hotel so don't expect a lot of amenities. The rooms are small, but clean and quiet. The hotel is in a great neighborhood away from the crowds in midtown. Several nice restaurants in the area. The front desk staff were excellent and very helpful.

Great place to stay! Hostel like environment allows for a more budget friendly stay while visiting the city. In a great area and near a lot of quick food places. Subway was nearby allowing easy access to public transit if needed. Will definitely be recommending to family and friends, and will definitely be my spot to stay when visiting.
