Hotel staff was friendly and helpful. Ammenities were new, rooms newly redone, comfy beds and pillows; Located 1/2 a block away from Broadway Junction Subway station- about 20min train ride to Manhatten- not bad at all! Great wireless connection. Only downfall would be train tracks right outside hotel- but just bring earplugs. Neighborhood is not attractive but we certainly did not feel unsafe at any time. This was way better than paying the sky high prices for a place in Manhatten- perfect for 2 or 3 nights!
