“This Midtown property seems to promise a luxury experience, but some reports temper expectations with service inconsistencies. The location is undeniably prime, yet the details-the devil is always in the details-appear to occasionally miss the mark. It's a strategic choice for those who prioritize location and space, understanding that a measure of personal management might be required.”
