“This place exceeded expectations—very clean, cozy, and comfortable rooms. The subway was easily accessible. The owner goes above and beyond, providing essential amenities and even a drop-off service to the airport. The location is fantastic, with convenience stores and great restaurants nearby. The breakfast spread is simple but satisfying. The warm, welcoming atmosphere and helpful staff made it feel like a home away from home. Highly recommend for a pleasant stay.”
