Really nicely situated right beside Riverside Market and a huge park where it was really nice to wander around. Staff was really nice too: we had some problems with one of the dryers and they offered to dry our clothes in their commercial dryers which we found really nice of them. Would absolutely come back to this place we loved our stay! :)"
