The room was very nice and it was also very clean. Staff were nice and understanding!!
Pros:

The room was very clean, and nice for the price. The staff were also really nice and very understanding, since it was my first time and my friend's first time going to a hotel by ourselves. I would for sure come back!

Cons:

Everything was pretty solid. However, I do wish there was some type of breakfast included?

We went to concert at the MET so it was a quick 5 minute uber ride away, great price. Very quiet
Pros:

i like they had the option for a parking spot and it was a little hard to find the parking lot but once we did it was perfect. The front desk provided great instructions in order to find it. The staff was amazing i forgot something in the room and remember when i was back home. The staff went above and beyond to get me my property back, amazing amazing thank you so much.

Cons:

Wish they would have a vending machine in lobby or on a floor so we can get water or drinks. They had ice machine in basement it was great but a bottle a water would have been amazing to be able to purchase.

Overall it works to see my child at college plus pet friendly.
Pros:

Location, convenience to the school and eateries.

Cons:

Door didn’t lock without lifting it up. You can hear every noise. We couldn’t control the A/C and it was hot.
