Hotel Hulku

It doesn't look like much from the outside but inside Hulku is a nice little oasis with a pool, flowing fountains, and large, clean and comfortable rooms. About 3 blocks from 5th Av, it's close to everything but is also far enough away that you don't get the tourist hordes and can find places where locals hang out. The staff were not the most attentive or proactive - you have to ask about everything rather than being informed of anything up front. A Do Not Disturb sign was also regularly ignored.
