the location was fantastic, as it was just a short walk to the subway station and numerous restaurants. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable. I loved the breakfast, which was delicious and conveniently located across the street at their sister property. The charming decor of my room added to the lovely atmosphere, making it a comfortable retreat.
