The Umbrella Hotel offers a cozy stay with clean and comfortable rooms, along with very friendly staff who go out of their way to help. While it provides great value for money, the surrounding area is a bit concerning and adds to the overall experience. However, having local food options nearby, like Dunkin Donuts and delicious NY pizza, is a definite plus.

This hotel offers a modern touch in an otherwise rough area. The rooms are small but clean, and the staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. However, the location can be concerning, and certain amenities like coffee supplies in the room were missing. The limited parking also adds some inconvenience, but given the price, it could be a good option for budget travelers.

Parking is limited to a few spaces behind the hotel, which can be a hassle but is better than street parking in the area.

I had a pretty decent experience at the hotel. The staff were absolutely delightful and made my stay enjoyable, but the location was a bit concerning, and the room had its share of small issues. The complimentary breakfast alternatives were nice, although I missed having breakfast served on site. Overall, it was a decent stay but not without its quirks.

I had a great experience overall, especially with the service; the staff were cheerful, accommodating, and eager to help. The location was a bit troubling, being in a sketchy area, which put a damper on my stay. The rooms were well-kept and comfortable, but I had some minor issues that were fixed quickly. They provided Dunkin Donuts gift cards during breakfast renovations, which was a nice touch. I would consider staying here again, but the location is definitely a concern.
