Ironically this hotel stil shows up with the amenities having a pool. So the pool is owned by the health club within the building, the guests of the hotel get to ENJOY one lane of this small lap pool..thats 48 floors of hotel guests ENJOYING one lane..at times THE lane that was aloud to us a hotel guests became so conjested with others, my kids elected not to swim. SO I say what do most children want to do at some point on vacation....SWIM I specifically booked a hotel with a pool for a reason....but my complaints were not heard and really I think anyone cared...needless to say I will not stay there again.
great hotel choice

We were very pleased with the hotel. We were upgraded to a corner room on the 34th floor with a spectacular view of times square. Our room was very clean and spacious. The king sized bed was so comfortable. The only complaint I have is the room temp was a little warm with no AC control. This made the ample supply of blankets unneeded. The bathroom door had to be kept closed to use the sink/vanity area or the door hit you in the back. There was a flat screen TV and a chaise lounge in the room, we felt at home. One step outside the hotel and you are in the middle of times square. The restaurant is way too pricey but there are many great restaurants nearby, We Loved Tony's on 42nd . We would gladly stay again everything was perfect, staff were courteous and hotel was outstanding.
Great

The hotel was great. Located in Time Square, near subway entrance, and walking distance from numerous attractions. The room was clean with a great view. The only thing I would not do again is the Golden Touch shuttle to and from the airport. I checked into it, and a taxi is a couple of bucks more, but faster and you don't have to ride around town picking up other people like you do with the shuttle. Would stay again, in fact my wife wants to go back and stay at the Crown Plaza!
Good location, clean and comfortable

So it's not the Ritz but it never promised that it was. We were able to check into our room at 9:00 AM and were upgraded to a corner room on the 35th floor with a view of Times Square and the Empire State Building for only $ per night! The room was clean and spacious by NYC standards. The front desk staff were a little snotty but the rest of the staff were delightful. Housekeeping was warm and friendly. One of the windows was ajar when we checked in and the bellman who delivered our bags did not know how to fix it. He called maintenance from our room and they were there in 10 minutes and fixed the window. We had a late departure flight and inquired about a late check-out. We were allowed to stay until 2:00 for free and then up to 6:00 for an additional $25 per hour. We paid the $100 and were able to have the room until 1 hour before needing to leave for the airport. The hotel also has a business center that can be used for 20 minutes for free so we were able to print our boarding passes. The restaurant is expensive (just like every other hotel in NYC - $15 for pancakes) so we went to a diner around the corner. Security is at the elevators and doors late at night and you are not allowed to go past them without showing your room key which is comforting. The hotel was not outstanding but for our weekend get away it was a perfect choice. I guess if I had spent a lot for the room I would have been disappointed but for such a great rate it was fantastic.
