The hotel was excellent, welcoming staff and close to the mall. I must say it was a 12/10. Would come back.

An amazing stay it was! A walking distance from the mall and USA consulate for your early morning visa interview. Staff was friendly, from the securities to everyone else.

We have had an incredible 9 days at the Capital Hotel, Empire Place. The staff are unbelievable. Friendly, kind, can't do enough! The rooms are spacious, have variety of amenities that are much more than a hotel room. There is a lot around the area, it feels very central. We wanted to extend our stay and they were full. Highly recommended!

Stay here if you like unresponsive and absent management, and want to be charged up front for a long stay and then not reimbursed for six weeks when they overcharge you.
