Adequate Stay at Kensington
vibrant lobby coffee bar bathroom cleanliness grubby grout
I appreciated the hotel's vibrant lobby with a coffee bar. Plenty of seating and an alcohol bar allowed social activity. The room included a fridge, microwave, stovetop, washing machine, and tea and coffee maker.
The bathroom cleanliness was below expectations. Grout looked grubby and moldy. The TV placement was not ideal, it was difficult to see from the bed.

The coffee shop, bar, and restaurant are conveniently located on the premises. Subway access is just a short walk away, surrounded by a variety of ethnic restaurants.
The bathroom lighting was somewhat dim.
