Not good

Ther was no drinking glasses in the room, it was under constrution. The paint was peeling off the walls. TV did not work. No clock in the room. It was the worst room I have ever had with your company. . I have to question you on this one. Jim.

This is not a 4-star hotel as it is listed- beware1

I walked in, experienced the surly staff at the front desk, saw my smelly room that more resembled a large prison cell than a hotel room (electrical cords even hanging from outlets at the ceiling), then imediately checked out and went to a real 4-star hotel.

OK stay

Hotel is clean, rooms are fairly large for NY. The elevators are very slow and I waited 10 minutes them to arrive each time I was coming and going.

Ok for the price

Stayed here during the week of Oct. 1, when for some reason many NYC hotels were either sold out or REALLY overpriced...$250 a night plus tax was actually a pretty good deal for the location. The location is pretty good, close to a number of train stops, times square, central park, etc. That said, this is NOT a four star hotel...the whole place is in need of an overhaul. I think they were going for that "drab-chic" look, but totally forgot about the chic part. There is nothing outright disgusting about the place, but it just feels old, run down and generally not really clean. The rooms are some of the biggest I have seen in NYC for the price. The lobby bar attracts quite a crowd at night for some inexplicable reason. Ultimately, you get what you pay for and for a short stay this place is ok.

overpriced for what you get

the hotel was average at best. you need to know there will be nothing exceptional about your stay here. location is good. i had someone's room service dishes in the hall for over a day. two elevators service the whole hotel....it can take awhile to get down to the lobby. rooms were ok...they have yet to update televsions to flat screens.

Great room, great view!

I ended up with a terrific room--or should I say suite! It was definitely more room than I needed, but I really liked it. The bed was great and the view was fantastic! Everything I needed was in within walking distance--even a grocery store.

Everything you need or want is within a few blocks--Times Square, Radio City Music Hall (I could see the marquee from my room on the 38th floor), Rockafeller Center (great subway connection) and Fifth Avenue. Central Park is an easy walk away, too.

Good location/smelly room

Our vents smelled like someone was smoking right next door the whole time, even after we complained to the staff. It was supposed to be non-smoking, but we had to keep the bathroom closed because it was so strong and spent as little time in the bathroom that we could. The fitness room had a great view, but the only bike available was broken. Otherwise it was a great place, nice people and great location.
