Fanastic to stay here for our 2nd stay in the city after venturing inland for a few days, it was great to be able to relax by the pool and chill to recharge before a couple more days of sightseeing prior to returning home. The room was big and well appointed.

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at the Handlery. The only problem we had was the plugs on the desk and nightstand were unusable because they were too loose to plug anything into. The room was spacious and quiet and very comfortable.

Loved the location close by to Union Square, shops/places to eat all walkable. Would have preferred to have air conditioning / fans in the room to make the stay more comfortable.
