Overall had a very comfortable stay. We enjoyed our room, which was quite large and comfortable. A little noisy with our window facing the alley. The first doorman we interacted with was absolutely delightful and so helpful. Unfortunately the other shift was covered by a somewhat surly and very unhelpful staff member. Front desk staff was pleasant. The cafe connected to the hotel had very good food with a huge menu and reasonable prices. Overall, it was a solid hotel in a great location with a very good price.
