Rooms were spacious, comfortable and clean. Hotel staff was very accommodating and friendly. Hotel was centrally located to everything and very easy to walk or grab a cab. Love the 24-hour coffee, tea, hot coco and snacks downstairs that you can help yourself too. That was a very nice touch, and we used it daily from coming in for the cold weather outside. Our family will definitely be staying at this hotel next time we visit NYC. Would highly recommend to others.

This hotel is well situated if you don’t want to be in Midtown, but you want be close to it. There is a very convenient subway station two blocks away. The hotel furniture and carpets are a little worn, but it is clean and comfortable. We especially liked the free tea and coffee, and snacks and fruit in the lobby. That was a very nice touch, which made the hotel very inviting. I would definitely consider going back to this hotel.

Stayed for three nights on a girls trip. The room was spacious and clean. Comfortable beds (including the sofa bed). Staff was always friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the coffee and light breakfast every morning and appreciated the snacks available throughout the day. The rooftop terrace was a great getaway and still nice to visit during our late October stay. Would definitely stay again!
