Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location was ideal for exploring the city, though the room size was small for the price paid. The service was attentive, except for some disruptions from the cleaning staff. The dining options were limited, but the central location made up for it. The facilities were basic but functional.
The hotel was lovely and located on a less busy street at night. The rooms, while small and not offering much storage, were clean and functional with a comfortable bed and nice quality bedding. The staff was incredibly friendly and always ready to assist with any issue. The location was fantastic, right in the center of Manhattan with iconic views from the window, although it could get a bit loud being on 5th avenue. The dining options were acceptable but not exceptional. Overall, a great value for money stay in the heart of the city.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were a bit on the smaller side, but I felt safe leaving my belongings in the room even though there was no safe provided. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff. The location couldn't have been better, making it easy to access all the main attractions in the area. While the dining options were limited, the nearby options made up for it. The facilities were sufficient for my needs.
The hotel is quite basic with small rooms, but if you are traveling alone or with just one other person, it serves its purpose well. The service was very attentive, especially during check-in and check-out. The location is excellent, close to key attractions in the heart of Manhattan. The dining options are limited, but there are nearby alternatives. Overall, decent value for the price.
The hotel offers a tiny room with a freshly made bed and cleaned bathroom, but noise from the corridor can be a disturbance. The size of the room is a major downside as it barely fits the bed.
The hotel's location is amazing, opposite the Empire State Building, with many sights within walking distance. The rooms were smaller than expected and had a large air conditioning unit, but the price was fair. The service was friendly but a bit cold at times due to perceived insincerity from staff. Dining options were limited to vouchers for coffee and a sandwich at nearby cafes.
I had a wonderful experience staying at the hotel. The rooms offered a great view of the Empire State Building, were clean, tidy, and very comfortable. The location was perfect for exploring the city, being close to major attractions and shopping areas. The service was exceptional with friendly staff and quick check-in. However, the dining options were limited to nearby cafes, and there were no tea facilities in the rooms.
Though the rooms were really small for the price, it didn't bother me much since I was out exploring most of the time. I could hear everyone coming and going, but the service was friendly and helpful, especially John and Steven. The location was perfect, with easy access to all the main attractions and close to major stores like Macy's. The dining options were limited to nearby cafes, but the hotel's service in arranging an Air Link ride to the airport was a huge convenience.
