Staying DT and in little Italy, food options galore!!!! Hardest part was picking where and what to eat. My trip was a quick layover, got my hotel to kick feet up, possibly meet up with a friend and not stay in the airport. Id stay here again due to being DT, dinning and possibly a good night life.

6/10 Okay

Booked here last minute, stay was just okay. Location is great walking distance to great restaurants and shops, but there’s a lot of noise from other guests, airplanes, and the air conditioning. The beds were extremely hard as were the pillows. The room itself was pretty spacious, didn’t feel cramped, appropriately appointed.
Daniel, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

While the hotel, in general, was average, the location made up for it. Right in the heart of little Italy with endless dining and shopping options.
