The hotel is in a great location, especially in Staten Island where it is very safe, offering comfortable rooms and friendly service. However, some impractical oversized furniture in the rooms could be off-putting. The dining experience featuring pan-roasted beef tenderloin was delightful, although prices might be on the high side.
