"I felt very safe in the neighborhood. It’s around the corner from Popeyes and Duane Reed drug store. Everything is close by including the train a liquor store and McDonalds. The hotel provides room extras like bottled water, coffee, toothpaste, plastic hair shower covers, a razor, and mouthwash all restocked daily. Most hotels don’t provide these items anymore. The elevators are a bit dark and could use brighter lighting. The hotel is very old but maintained as well as can be expected. The sink had a plumbing problem which was fixed by maintenance within 5 min of me informing the front desk. We stayed on the 12th floor which had a slight odor of weed but it didn’t impact our room. If you are looking for an all new, brightly lit, 4 star hotel, this is not it. However, if you don’t stay in the room much and want something clean and economical, this is your hotel!!"
