Disliked: Cleanliness
I stayed four nights. We had to get our room changed because we found a cockroach in the bathroom. The staff was very accommodating and respectful. The cleanliness off the rooms and the hotel was not great. It seemed like a building from the 80s that had some touch ups. I was surprised to find their bathroom shower and dispenser products were from Apotheke, a trendy brand from Brooklyn. The restaurant employees were amazing. Very attentive.

I did not have breakfast from there so I can’t comment on it. My room did not have enough wash rags I had to wait until the next day for cleaning service to come in order to get more wash rags. The room was booked for 3 with only one wash rag in it. $25 a day parking was a bit pricey.
