The Bad
Some guests didn't appreciate paying a daily fee for parking on site, though most felt the other amenities eased the blow.
A few guests mentioned the lack of on-site restaurant and were inconvenienced by it. Some mentioned on the weekends having to search for a restaurant that did not close early.
A few guests mentioned that while it was a short walk to the subway, there were a number of vacant lots that made them feel unsafe after dark.
A few guests who ate breakfast complained that the eating area was too small to accommodate all of the guests (though it is worth noting breakfast can be eaten in your room). While there were few complaints about the variety, a number of guests had issues with how long it took to make waffles.
