    - sometimes they were slow with delivering tissue/soap to the room - very pricey for the size

    - it was new - amazing location & very safe - spacious room compared to other rooms in New York - good clean bathroom - drinking water machine

    The grumpy old man at the check in counter was in a bad mood. They had TV issues.

    It was clean, the decor was nice and simple and at a great location. Great value.

    The hotel was the perfect location for me and my friends. It was very accessible to the subway , the bus terminal and the famous sights like the Empire State and Times Square and shopping areas, Macy's was a few blocks and there is a Nordstrom outlet at the corner. The surrounding area was bustling but the hotel was located in a very quiet street. There was luggage storage across the hotel which was very convenient when we spent a weekend in Boston.

    Airconditioning worked well but was very loud, it was quite expensive for a week's stay but so is everything in New York.

    Great location, lovely staff, free coffee/tea in the morning, comfortable bed, good wifi, gym had everything you need for a short visit. It was good value for money.

    The airco is very noisy, and our window was one giving on fire stairs with other airco machines… so it was not a nice or silent view. The bed was a bit soft for me. Don’t order a taxi at reception, it seems the company they use has a very own perception of time: after waiting 40 minutes for a taxi supposedly arriving in 15 minutes, we had to jump in an Uber to make sure we catch our flight.

    The room was spacious, nicely designed and kept spotless clean during our stay. Fridge, kettle, steamer were made placed in the room immediately upon our request. Overall, the hotel is nice and the staff is kind, and the little bar on the ground level is handy, pending you have time to wait for it as service is a bit slow.

    We had 2 rooms. One room was notably better than the other. The King with futon/couch was facing a brick wall and therefore dark and had a smaller tv and bathroom than the regular King room. The regular King room was perfect.

    Staff was extremely helpful and personable. Location was great. Rooms were spotless and new. While there is no restaraunt at the hotel, there is a small cafe in the morning for coffee and muffins/danishes. Plenty of places close by to eat.

    The main bed was too soft for our taste. The sofa bed was a bit tricky to sleep on, since it had an uncomfortable step in the middle.

    The room was very clean and beautifully furnished. Fresh and clean towels that were changed every day. We could get a free tea or coffee each morning. There was an ice machine on our floor.
