It’s fine. Nothing special. I don’t particularly like staying on the East side because it is less convenient for what I want to do - but easy to get into GC to pick up cross-town subway

Stayed there for about 6 mos. Very solid all around, super convenient and solid gym. Bar is pretty good too.

I stayed there for a year. It’s decent enough. But as above nothing special at all.

Better than most of the Marriott property in the vicinity.

Tricks me into thinking I can drink healthy.
