Acceptable Location, Frustrating Room Issues
small room paper tableware
The hotel is located close to a subway station and within walking distance of several shops and restaurants.
The room was small, and the lack of fresh air was irritating. There was no way to open the windows fully. Breakfast was served in paper cups and takeout boxes. The breakfast room itself was more like a storage area, tables were crammed in, and chairs were scattered haphazardly.

subway access clean environment lovely bathroom
The location was amazing, just steps from the subway. the hotel boasts an clean environment and a cool vibe.. everything felt thoughtfully designed. i especially loved the bathroom. It was lovely and well kept.
our room faced a brick wall, so we didn't get much natural light, making it quite dark during the day.

i really liked the room. it felt spacious, especially for a solo traveler. there was a cute bay window offering a little nook for reading. also, the downstairs cafe had great coffee and snacks, a definite plus. i found two separate areas perfect for working, and .
the incidental hold felt a little high. three hundred dollars is quite a bit, especially with limited amenities.
