It's a Marriott, sure, but it's also in the heart of Times Square. Your view can be anything from the ticker to a billboard, and if you are on a lower floor, you'll hear the cabs racing and honking at each other. But when you are in NYC, do you really do more in a hotel room than just park your stuff?

The rooms are typical hotel rooms - nothing to write home about. All Marriott’s are the same. But as I said, for the price (which is decently considering the location), you have access to the heart of the city.

The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful, which is good for tourists who might be nervous stepping out into Times Square, which even at night is lit up and packed with people.
