Great location! The restaurant below was excellent. Buffet breakfast was very good. Sometimes there was a very long line but moved quickly. It was irritating using room key for elevator and lights but was fine once you got used to it (and when it worked). Check-in line was always way too long- there needs to be online check-in that allowed not going to the desk. Would definitely stay here again!
Hotel was beautiful, rooms were spacious for NYC, and the location was perfect! Breakfast was good and it saved a lot of money vs. going out to eat each morning. We’ll definitely be back, well worth the money!
Rotting hole in the bathroom ceiling, very limited fitness center, no pool, staff did not explain the key card procedures. Otherwise fairly nice and good location.
Pros. Great location.
Cons. Room was EXTREMELY small. Unclean (hairs in sink and on bathroom floor). Not even a small, single serve coffee machine in the room. All for $450 per night?
