Good hotel, well located
Liked: The hotel is very nice; it’s a 25-minute walk from Times Square. The location is perfect for visiting the city, as you’re in Midtown and away from the hustle and bustle of Times Square, which would keep you from sleeping. There are two subway stations nearby. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. I want to give special mention to Beny at reception, who was extremely kind and professional—it’s a pleasure to deal with employees like him.The rooms are just like in the photos; I recommend booking the larger one when making your reservation. The only downside I found with the room is that the air conditioning is very noisy—even with earplugs, you can hear it quite loudly.I recommend staying at this hotel. For breakfast, there’s a bagel place nearby that’s quite popular and reasonably priced for New York.
Disliked: The air conditioning is quite noisy; even with earplugs, you can still hear it

It’s basic but clean and...
Liked: Prime location walking distance from major attractions and cleaning staff did a great job! Kudos! Rooftop is a nice place to chill out.
Disliked: The bed was unbearably soft, room is tiny. AC seems to live its own life and doesn’t follow the commands, regardless of the weather windows were always moist and humidity in the room only would go away when AC was freezing.

Great experience
Liked: We really enjoyed our stay! The location of the hotel was excellent, close to everything we needed. The staff was very friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The facilities were clean and comfortable, and we really appreciated being allowed to check in early and leave our luggage after check-out before our flight. Although the room had a shared bathroom, it was convenient to have a sink in the room. Overall, a great experience!
Disliked: The air conditioning was a bit louder

Fabulous and Fantastic
Liked: The location of the hotel was extremely convenient to all subways and great restaurants, and to the airport. The rooms were extremely clean and provided everything needed to the smallest details and very great living space. Loved the room had laminate flooring NOT carpet and the windows had shutters NOT curtains which gave a very neat and clean look. This hotel had a wonderful outdoor space to enjoy a morning coffee or just to relax and reflect on the upcoming day. This has NOW become my favorite place to stay in NYC. It will now be my choice every time when visiting NYC.
