The hotel is in a great location—conveniently close to Midtown’s main attractions, Penn Station, and the subway, making it easy to get around the city.
However, the hotel itself feels a bit worn down. At one point, my friend got stuck in the elevator and had to call us for help. Since we were on the top floor and couldn’t reach the front desk, we alerted the bartender. His reaction was surprisingly casual—just an “oh, okay”—with no urgency at all. It felt like this sort of thing might happen often.
The rooms were noticeably smaller than they appeared in the photos. Also, the ground-floor coffee area was underwhelming, especially considering the price we paid to stay there.
We had two rooms next to each other—one had been cleaned, the other had not, which was a bit disappointing.
We also noticed that many people at the rooftop bar weren’t hotel guests—they mentioned it themselves. A few even asked us if we were staying at the hotel and where we were from while in the elevator, which felt a little odd.
Overall, it wasn’t a terrible stay, but nothing particularly memorable either. It served its purpose as a place to sleep after a busy day exploring Manhattan.
