We appreciated the size of the rooms and having a small kitchenette. We loved the location which was easily walkable to many parts of midtown and popular sightseeing spots. The subway was 1 block away which made our overall trip very easy to navigate. We would stay at the San Carlos again.

Great place in the middle of everything

Friendly staff, clean comfotable room, great location close to bus and subway, excellent bagel and coffee shops within a couple blocks. Only complaint was clogged shower that didn't drain fast enough. There was 2-3 inches of water in the tub after a 5 minute shower.

The room on 2nd floor was the worst I have experienced in the many times I have stayed in the hotel. The windows are unusually small to start with, but one of them is then blocked by the afterthought air conditioning unit. The lack of natural light was matched by the poor lighting available in the room.
