We loved it here! I don’t know why so many other reviews said the staff wasn’t friendly… we had very friendly staff when we were there! Everyone was super friendly, the hotel is super convenient and easily accessible right by Grand central. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and actually pretty spacious. We are Bonvoy members and had to call down daily for our water bottles but besides that and some very loud next door neighbors that had a party late night and we had to all security for, those were our only two negative things I could say. The bar was nice and good for late night drinks. I wish there was a restaurant on site but there is many close by. However we would definitely stay here again and can’t wait to come back!

They charge a surprise “destination fee” which is $40 per night which is only told to you when you get there, but staff is super unhelpful and treat you differently for booking through Expedia, I asked if I can get any kind of late checkout, the lady said no not at all because of Expedia, then I called and spoke with another employee and said yeah I can give you an hour later “but next time speak with the front desk about any requests”, I also feel stereotyped by this hotel when I went to the front desk and I said I have a question, then the lady immediately responds “is it about the incidental hold”, why did she automatically assume I had a money question, please keep looking around for other hotels, the bathroom showers are small and you have to be lucky to get a decent view of the city despite us being on the 26th floor
