Fantastic
Overrall sort of a no frills place but in great condition and extremely helpful and efficient staff. I normally don’t leave reviews but I was very impressed. Great location too; away from maddening crowds but walking distance to everything. I’ll probably stay here every time I come back to nyc.

The location is a little outside of the Midtown craziness but close enough to get to pretty quickly, which makes it convenient and a little less chaotic than other parts of town. For what we paid, however, I thought the rooms would be a little nicer and more modern. It was cold outside but so incredibly hot and stuffy inside and nothing we did seemed to cool it off. It was good for what we needed it to be on this trip, though I'm not sure I would stay there again.

I stayed with my family for 5 nights and 6 days. The kitchen was sufficient for cooking and the living room was very spacious, enough for 4 people to stay. The staff were friendly and the surrounding area was close.

More than enough room for 3 adults
For NYC, our room was incredibly roomy for the 3 of us visiting NYC. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. The staff was helpful and attentive. Can’t recommend high enough

Would stay again!
Had a wonderful stay in the 1 bedroom apartment. Very spacious room for 3 adults and 3 kids. Staff were top notch- friendly, very helpful when it came to storing our luggage and getting us cabs. My only con was the sleeper sofa’s mattress. I had trouble sleeping in it due to it and the pillow. But overall would recommend and stay there again!

Very Noisy
The hotel is old and located in an extremely noisy area. We were on the 9th floor and at no time of the day was it quiet. The pictures are outdated and do not accurately represent the accommodations. Our bathroom sink was extremely slow to drain, and you could smell smoke through the vents. The carpet should be changed and that would make a world of difference. On the positive side, the staff were very nice and professional. The location is great, but I would not stay there again.
