The TV and fireplaces in every room is great and the shower has great water pressure. The physical location is awkward. The traffic and large intersection make it isolated and not easily walkable to the local places. Pretty noisy area overnight. A lot of sirens because of the hospital. Not a very good view out the windows. The stairs are narrow and steep.
