The hotel itself is great, especially the location is amazing. Almost everything you’d want to see in Manhattan is within walking distance—so much so that you don’t even need to take the metro to reach key attractions. The room was surprisingly tiny with no mini-fridge, but the bathroom was a regular size. I liked the comfortable mattress and the Nespresso machine there. The only downside was the temperature control—it had limitations, I slept cold!

I stay here often since my office is in the Times Square area, whenever I have a late night work event. It’s nearby, safe, clean and the beds are comfy. Plus you get a discount for drinks at a next door restaurant. My only issues: shower rarely gets hot enough in winter on upper floors, no ventilation in bathroom when shower is hot enough.

Wow-this was a fantastic stay. The location is perfect--right near Times Square but very quiet and the price cannot be beat for that area. The room was new and very clean and the front desk folks were very friendly. Do not forget to get your free drink ticket that can be used at anytime at the bar next door! The bar is super nice as well (it is good for a few domestic beers or house wine).
