consistent quality stay

central park viewhigh-quality amenitiescomfortable bedquick service
my room was a park view room. the central park view was a great start to each day. the room included high-quality amenities. i found the bed and linens were very comfortable for restful sleep (which is always important). the staff addressed all requests quickly. i was particularly impressed with the attention to detail. they ensured my stay was seamless.
the corridor carpets showed minor wear, suggesting a refresh could enhance the overall appearance.
