There wasn't any free breakfast at the hotel. Outside was a bit out with the police and fire department. The hotel was overall a nice NYC stay. Very clean, stylish, and the staff was very friendly.

AC doesn’t work for 5 days from the six we were on. Room wasn’t cleaned everyday and even not been cleaned for three days until I called them and ask them to come over now. Smallest room I have ever been on. Just a bad hotel with a good location. Not VFM

Hotel was in an excellent spot for exploring. Only a few minutes from the Empire State Building and a 15 minute walk to Macy’s and even Summit One on Vanderbilt. We never ate in the hotel, so can’t comment on the food. It’s in a great location for lots of Korean and Japanese restaurants as well. Very handy for the Metro, which is literally a 2 minute walk from the front door.

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.
