We were on the first floor, window was almost non existent and air conditioning could not keep up. Location of hotel was great and bell staff was great but there was construction right next to the hotel so that didn’t help either! Check to see where your room is! Felt like we were is a box!!

The hotel is in a great location — close to shops, restaurants, the subway, Central Park, and Times Square — but the room itself was a real disappointment. Our room had one narrow window facing a brick wall just a few feet away, so there was no natural light at all. An old air conditioner sat in the bottom of the window and made loud noises every few minutes, which made it hard to relax. I asked the concierge if we could move to another room. He checked his computer and gave a long, vague answer that didn’t make much sense — I guess it was a no. I would’ve paid more for a better room if that option had been offered, but it wasn’t. Thankfully, we were only there for two nights, but it felt like staying in a storage closet. The funky design just made it more irritating. This was easily the worst room I’ve ever stayed in while visiting New York. I had no idea rooms like this even existed in highly rated hotels. Next time, I’ll do a lot more research before booking.

Good value. No pool, view , or breakfast, but a great location for the theater district , museums and Central Park. Rooms are quiet and dark , with comfortable, firm king size mattresses. Best I've ever slept in the theater district. There is a 2nd floor lounge with water, pastries and very good coffee for coming from a machine. The staff are wonderful. Pleasant and helpful. We plan to stay here again. There is a parking garage literally next door. (The guy that was the inspiration for Seinfeld's "Soup N...) is on the other side ). Subway stations are very close as well.

There was no plug at the desk so made it hard to work at the desk. The curtains and carpet were not clean. The bed a, sheets and towels were clean. It was more of the things that can’t be cleaned on a daily basis

The hotel is clean and the staff are friendly, which is appreciated. However, the rooms (except for the Junior Suite) have windows facing a wall, making it impossible to tell whether it’s day or night. Breakfast is served in a very small room and consists mainly of sweet pastries, with the occasional apple. There’s only one table available, so it’s far from a comfortable breakfast experience. The highlight of the hotel is its excellent location.

This was my 5th stay at this property. Staff is alway pleasant and super helpful. The room is clean and I feel safe. I complained in my last review about the steps in the front of the property. The first step is not at the proper height and I fell on the step. Still having problems with my knee. Attention should be given to this detail. Thanks
