Summary: This hotel was so comfortable!! I stayed here with my husband and teen daughters in July 2025. My kids were so excited to try sleeping on futons and tatami mats and this hotel did not disappoint. They were very comfortable. There was a coin wash nearby for laundry and the subway was a short walk away.
