The hotel features a museum dedicated to the Marine Corps. I found the historical exhibits interesting. The fitness center has modern equipment and plenty of space for workouts. The location is near Union Square with easy access to shops and restaurants. THE breakfast buffet offered a good variety of options, and I enjoyed the happy hour on the roof terrace.
The bathtub lacked a handheld shower, which I found inconvenient.
