the room had great amenities like razors toothbrushes and a facial cleansing kit. the hotel provided pyjamas and slippers. there was a seven eleven next door to the hotel. the subway was only a short walk away.
the breakfast was not worth the price. the air conditioning was slow. i wanted to extend the checkout by one hour but the hotel policy did not allow it for free.
