Check-in time was 3pm, but our room was ready when we arrived early at 1:30pm. The room was clean & comfortable. The staff was very curteous & helped in taking up luggage to room in 3rd floor since there was no elevator. There was no space to place a shaving kit with toiletries by the sink. There was water droplet occasionally coming from the ceiling.directly above the sink.

There was no answer on the listed phone number. Even though we were able to do the digital check in, we never received the required code to enter the hotel. Luckily someone answered our knock to get in. Later we tried to get to watch the TV, but the manager could not show us how to do it, so we had to figure it out ourselves.

Clean, comfortable place to stay when flying in late on NYE. Went to the rooftop to watch the amazing fireworks that were going off all over the city. Rooms were sorta small, with a tight hallway and bathroom, and the door slammed shut every time it closed, but once settled, we all slept well. There was some confusion with booking on Expedia and getting the check-in codes....needed to text back and forth with the front desk, but staff was super nice so it all was good.
