The hotel location near the river had excellent views across to New York. The idea you could hire kitchen items was nice, it. I liked the big room and bathroom. It was very roomy. I also liked that it sold food to cook in the foyer.
I found a stovetop kettle missing in my room, it caused a slight inconvenience.
