The hotel offers spacious rooms with rich books, but they seemed cleaned in a hurry. The king room appeared bigger and had more square footage. The location is perfect for exploring mid-town Manhattan, just around the corner from Fifth Avenue and a short walk to Times Square and the Empire State Building.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious for NYC standards and came with luxurious CO Bigelow products, a cozy bathrobe, and a lovely balcony with a table and chairs. The service was top-notch, with the staff always kind and accommodating. The location was superb, within walking distance to many attractions, though some areas were a bit lacking in light. The dining experience was a bit inconvenient but enjoyable overall. Facilities were great, adding to a memorable stay.

The hotel had spacious rooms with ample closet space and great comfort, though cleanliness could have been better. The service was extremely friendly and accommodating, although there were some issues with room changes and Wi-Fi connectivity. The location was fabulous, within short walking distances of major tourist attractions, and surrounded by excellent dining options. The dining experience was lacking variety and had limited serving hours. Overall, a comfortable stay with fantastic proximity to city attractions.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of ups and downs. The room was spacious but outdated and not properly cleaned, resulting in a dusty atmosphere. The noise level also disrupted my comfort. The service had its highs and lows, with some staff members being unprofessional and rude while others were helpful and pleasant. The location was a big plus, especially with the unexpected room upgrade to a junior suite. The dining experience was satisfactory, although limited breakfast hours were a drawback.
