Pros:

Was my first stay at a Kasa Lantern property and was a great experience! Was initially worried about a fully remote access property with no front desk but they had great communication and clear instructions for access and any amenities needed. Property was clean and more spacious than the majority of other hotels that were 30-50% more expensive. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others!

Pros:

Loved this place. Super convenient to everything, great accommodations, some nice little luxuries in the room too. The kitchenette was so fun. You don't see that as much these days. I want to live in that room!

Pros:

When I arrived in the room my window had an enormous crack in it and despite notifying “staff” twice about it there was no communication or reaching out. I frankly felt unsafe with the window looking like it was about to cave in with a light breeze.

Pros:

Great location close to all methods of transportation and to many amenities. Restaurants and shopping experience are around every corner nearby. I didn’t like the check-in time. It should be by 3 pm giving more time to be able to go around upon arrival. The staff very friendly. And very polite Thanks

Pros:

The property was closed to the place I visited in NY. Overall experience was good. The few things I didn’t expect. One was the room was very small. Second was the coffee capsules were not enough for the days of our stay. Third was the $66 charge for 2 hrs advance check in which I didn’t experience in o other stays.

Pros:

Not great value for the price of the hotel. Room felt stuffy, low of stains around appliances and toilet cleaner. Toilet dispenser loose. Towels were off white signaling they were not entirely washed. Windows were dirty.

Pros:

This was my second time staying at a Kasa property and it was just as good as the first. The apartment was very clean and smelled amazing from Sunday - Tuesday (when I departed). The soaking tub was EVERYTHING! After a long day of walking around the city the soaking tub was the ucing on the cake. Perfect!

No sound insulation means you’re up all night.
Pros:

Room was small but fine. Main issue was lack of sound insulation between the rooms. You could hear muffled conversations of other guests who were speaking in normal ways. Even with the white noise machine they provide it was still not a restful stay.
