Star Service "This is a convention beehive if there ever was one.
Its harborside location creates a question mark for tourists, as it is on the wrong side of the Gardiner Expressway, though close to the ferries." Full review

Frommer's "This jewel-box boutique hotel consists of just four rooms. Each of the spacious suites is luxuriously appointed with ultra-comfy Hastens handcrafted beds, supple Rivolta Carmignani linens" Full review
