Tolerable hotel in a convenient midtown location. Not particularly notable for anything: acceptable and sufficient lodging, but not much more than that. Absolutely nothing charming or authentic or quaint or glamorous or luxurious. No bright spot here, just another generic hotel that is slightly run down, dingy, sad, and tired. Based on the service level, pretty safe to assume the hotel is cutting costs as much as possible and charging rates that are high, but not ridiculously overpriced, relative to the value of the accomodations. The sole exception to "blah" was a very enjoyable experience when checking in, so at least one staff member is awesome.
