I wanted to rate this place higher but it was difficult to relax. Construction going on and right by my window there is a port wine bar which I had to call reception and ask them if they can be a bit more quiet. At times it was past 11 pm and people were still out there smoking and drinking and speaking loudly . It was a bit uncomfortable also to keep my window open . I think it was a quiet time they could’ve placed me somewhere else after the 1st time I called but they didn’t offer it . They didn’t give enough toilet paper , when I asked they told me they would bring it and never did .i went out and bought some .

We loved the location, comfort, and friendly support from staff. The rooms were clean and cozy. The crib for our 22 month old was setup and nicely arranged before our arrival, along with some basic grocery necessities for our family. It was a bit loud in the mornings around 5am due to trash pickups and then around 7am for the kindergarten right next door. The room was super warm; with the radiators completely off it was still 78°F in the room, while it was only 50°F outside. Therefore, with the noise level from outside, we couldn’t keep our windows open to cool the apt down. We were able to secure street parking everyday despite the hotel staff suggestion to do parking garage arrangements, but we are Manhattan residents.
