Super kind staff and a beautifully appointed, very large living space for hanging out with family. Beds were super cozy too!
The room was medium-sized, clean, had a fridge, tv and a balcony. In the cold weather, the room was appropriately heated, and the temperature was able to be personally operated. Staff were helpful and polite the entire time. The breakfast was a standard American breakfast and a great value for money. The location was close to subway links and in a great area for independent bars, Pilates classes, and low-cost restaurants. Overall, it was a great stay and would only go back if I wanted to be outside of the main city for a different vibe.
