6/10 Good

Tiny room, but it was ok. Staff was rude, but it is NYC. Elevator was broken.
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Rooms were clean, enough space for one night. Right in the heart of the city. I was there to see the Thanksgiving Day Parade and 38th was within walking distance to do so. Elevators are kind of slow, check in was a little delayed past the promised 4pm time, but not really an issue. The front desk staff was wonderful.

Austin, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed for the US Open, it was convenient, clean, and comfortable. Rooms are small, hotel does not have all the bells and whistles of the big ones, but for what we needed it was great. Highly recommended, would stay here again.

Love!
Rose, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We loved the hotel. Staff was friendly and helpful and room was clean. Our room faced the street and there was a lot of construction type noise every night between 3 and 5 am. So I would ask for a room that does not face the street if you are a light sleeper.
