central location trendy hotel nice amenities small rooms dated bathroom poor shampoo
The location proved convenient for accessing various attractions (perhaps a thirty-minute walk at most). I found the hotel quite trendy, a quality I appreciate. The room amenities were nice. The subway station is very close to the hotel.
The rooms felt small to me. I also noticed the bathroom seemed a little dated and could benefit from some updating. I did not like the quality of the shampoos provided (i hope they improve the quality).

acceptable but disappointing

prefabricated bathroom weak shower
the breakfast options were acceptable.
The bathroom was a prefabricated unit, similar to what one might find on a boat. It had a weak shower stream , made washing hair difficult, the toilet flushed poorly, resulting in blockages, and there were odd stains on the carpet.
