If you have a kid in diapers, dont stay here. No trashcans anywhere in the hotel except your room. They expect you to keep dirty diapers in room because if you keep it outside your door to take to garbage outside the hotel, staff and maybe a guest complains. The hotel staff send nasty texts about kicking you out if it happened again. They dont offer any advice or let you know of an area to throw them away.

The staff was very accommodating. We had early dinner reservations and had gotten soaked from the heavy rain, they upgraded us to a bigger room which was ready, so we could get into a room and change for dinner.

Worth the stay

The renovation was done well and the rooms are expansive and comfy. Kitchenette could have more dishes, plus soap and paper towels. Staff are welcoming and professional.

Fantastic in the heart of manhattan! The location was close to Central Park and walking distance to just about everything. It was also on the main bus route and close to Subway station. The room was absolutely immaculate, small but well appointed, in excellent condition. Only only two negatives, 1)the climate control for the room is extremely noisy when AC is running. 2) There was a divot in the bed where people slept. (Time for a new mattress cover). Front desk staff really helpful! I would stay there every chance I get.
