My wife decided to take a spur of the moment spring-break trip to New York. Neither one of us had ever been to the city. We wanted to make sure we stayed in a good area at a good price. This hotel had everything we were looking for. Very close to Time Square, Rockefeller Center, Central Park, Broadway. The hotel staff was very helpful and friendly. I had a wifi issue and they went out of there way to resolve it. The only complaint I have is with the parking fee, but it's New York and you have to pay it everywhere. I look forward to our next trip to NYC and we will stay at this hotel again.
Great stay in NYC

We had an overall great stay in this hotel. Front desk and the rest of the staff was very friendly. We were given a std. room on the 33rd floor which was great, because it was high enough up so that the street noise wasn't too much of a problem. The bedroom and bathroom were spacious (for nyc) and clean. The lobby has computers and free internet access as well - which was great. The best part was the location. You're about 4 blocks north from Times Square and 4 blocks south from Central Park. So perfect walking distance either way you go. You do NOT want to be staying right smack in the middle of Times Square! We went during the slow season and it was still Sensory Overload 24/7 -- so, unless that's your thing...
The only thing I would not do at this hotel is their daily breakfast brunch.
They charge you $35 / person. Loni's / Lori's restaurant next door was expensive too.
For 1 bagel + 1 muffin and 2 coffees = $30.00.
Not to be a cheapskate or anything, but it's an obvious tourist trap when you can -literally- just cross the street and get the same thing, at the many cafes, for less than half the price.
Overall, would definitely come back and stay at this hotel.
Stayed on the 19-22 of March 2009

We had no problems, great staff and there 80 of us. We had a whole dance team plus parents and the staff was great. Accomodations were fine, the bar needs to stay open later, but still a good time was had by all.
Great Service!

We stayed at this hotel 2 years ago, so when I knew we were returning to NY I checked this hotel first. The reviews weren't positive. I decided to give the hotel another chance, especially since the location is so great. All of our special requests were met. Due to a major snow storm and a late flight departure, they kindly gave us a 4:00 check out on both of our rooms without the charge of $*per room. I was kind to them and they were kind to me. The rooms are small, but fine for 2 people-4 would have been tight. I would recommend this hotel.

The room was fine. Nothing fancy, apart from the cool motorized window shade. The room had a pretty spectacular view down Seventh Avenue towards Times Square.
Hotel staff were courteous and professional.
It took about ten minutes to figure out how to get the TV to display CNN. TV Menu format was way too complicated - and why isn't plain old cable TV at the top, instead of all sorts of pay per view options??
