Modern Comfort and Great Location

really good cleanlinessexcellent comfortsubway stationmissing washcloth
I found the hotel to be clean. The beds provided excellent comfort after a long day. Vouchers for cocktails at the restaurant bar were a good perk. It was nice to discover that the hotel is near two subway stations, one about a 6-minute walk and the other about 12 minutes away.
The absence of washcloths in the bathroom was noticeable. I found this to be a strange omission.
