EVERYTHING was wonderful & I hope we left your beautiful home in a satisfactory condition🙏btw I’d like to return when it’s warm. I plan to contact you again. Have an awesome & safe 2026! Again, thank you.
This hotel gave us everything we needed for a short stay. Easy access to the subway, closeness to food, and a direct link to JKF.
It gives you your basic necessities and the room service is always on time. The staff is attentive and friendly. Highly recommend for a decent, easygoing stay.
This hotel is in a terrible area. It wasn’t very clean, especially the bathroom. Way overpriced and pretty far from the airport. The reception guy was friendly.
