8/10 Good
"The room was sufficient, but there were no real amenities. They did have a gym. No snack bar or anywhere to get snacks, water, or toiletries if needed. I don’t even think you could call down to the Front Desk. At least I couldn’t figure it out from the in room phone. We put some leftovers outside our door for room service to pick up but it’s out there over 24 hours. The breakfast they serve is very minimal & the eggs they provided didn’t look like real eggs to me. But it was convenient to the subway or the train as we were going to the US open."
