Great location. Staff are always helpful and hotel is clean and beds are very comfortable.

We arrived to hotel rooms that had no towels or shampoo. Then the lock broke on my door while we were at breakfast and we were locked out for half a day of our 2 day vacation waiting for maintenance. They wouldn’t even let us in so my daughter could change out of her pajamas. The water filler doesn’t work and reception yells at you if you try to get water in the restaurant. We had to get new room keys 4 times in 2 days because they kept deactivating our keys. They told me they were going to comp one of the nights to compensate for all of the problems we had, but the pending refund that initially showed up on my credit card was canceled by the hotel as soon as we left. There are other hotels in New York. I highly recommend you pick something other than this one.

In a very quiet part of town that is easily accessible to everything. The rooms are nice, bathrooms are very spacious. The lounge area was timeless. It had the appeal of an old speakeasy. This place definitely feels like a hidden gem. Also, follow Lenny, he brings a classic sort of magic to the whole experience.
