excellent furniture valet service spacious room small toilet poor view
I enjoyed the beautiful victrola in the lobby. The furniture was quite excellent! The valets were great with their amazing service! I loved how spacious and beautiful the room was.
The toilet seemed very small. I could see the pipes under the sink, and that was not comfortable. The window only showed the top of the building!
