Great spot for families!

Stayed four nights with my family of 5 (that included two adults, one young adult, and two teenagers) and the two bedroom sweet was perfect! The area felt safe and it was well located near several subway lines (including the subway line from LaGuardia). The staff were also very nice and the hotel was clean and nicely maintained. The spacious two bedroom suite gave everyone space to relax, get ready for the day, and sleep comfortably. I would definitely stay again.

The best

Hotel staff are DYNAMIC! I have never had people do so much to make sure we had a good visit. The apartment was super clean and we totally appreciated the snacks. The breakfast was so much more than we expected. They even accommodated special dietary needs. We will never stay anywhere else going forward.

Every staff member we encountered was outstanding! Very friendly and helpful. The accommodations were comparable to a 2 bedroom apartment, and were comfortable and clean. The location was ideal for exploring and walkable (within a mile or two) to Fifth Avenue, Central Park, Times Square etc. We plan to book this property the next time we return to NYC.
