"My most favorite place to stay"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
I hate that I cannot afford to stay here during busy times of the year. It is by far my favorite place to stay. Close to my son's apartment. Great staff. Cozy and comfortable. I don't need bells and whistles, just this place to call home when I visit NY four to five times every year.
