I loved this hotel so much!!! The front desk ladies were absolutely wonderful! Super nice and helpful! The room was gorgeous and had everything I needed to cook all my food. The bed was really comfortable and the bathroom is stunning! I loved the sauna, probably the best sauna I’ve ever used! We’ll definitely stay here again!!!

Our room was on the bottom floor with no natural light and windows that opened up to cement walls. The property had an awful smell and didn’t seem very clean overall. However our bed and sheets were clean.

Huge studio space with a good kitchen and a weirdly small couch. Overall, feels like a NYC apartment in a lot of ways. The window from the street was very thin and it was quite noisy from the street, but quiet from the hallway and hotel property. Overall, good rooms. Sort fo strange common areas and a bit louder than I would want. I could see this being a good place to stay with kids with the kitchen and space.

This is the place to stay....

This hotel offers the largest rooms with a kitchen for the money in NYC. Get one of the suites with the patio. Go to Madre downstairs for an excellent brunch. Highly recommend the french toast.
