Surprisingly nice
I was very pleasantly surprised by this hotel. The staff was great. While you have to want to be this far up town for your hotel I found the neighborhood to be great and the hotel is very nice. Rooms though are verrry small (desk chair would not pull out without hitting the bed) but all I do is sleep in my room so if you don't need space to spread out then this is a great hotel for you.

GREAT place to stay
The hotel was great. Very clean, staffs were friendly. Inside has been remodeled so it has a very contemporary modern look. It was also very close to the train station (2 blocks away) which made it very convenient for me to go around town. However, it gets a 4 star because it doesn't have a restaurant and does not include breakfast.

Nice stay
Very nice stay for the price I paid. The towels alone almost made me want to book another night. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean and fresh. The hotel personnel were also very helpful and friendly, something I didn't expect in New York. I was misled by the website saying there was free internet, which there is but only in the lobby, not in the rooms.

Walk from the hotel through Central Park and south along the avenue to really enjoy Manhattan and spend money shopping instead of paying for expensive cabs and trains.

First time visit to NYC
The most important thing to me was that the room was clean! It wasn't fancy, but the beds and bathroom were kept quite clean. Small room, but there was enough. Wasn't lacking. Helpful front desk people, always someone at the door to open it for you. Close to subway station-convenient! Wireless internet in the lobby and they had computers in the "business center" to use-as well as printer. Good value-nothing fancy but is decent. would stay again.

Use the subway-so convenient and cost effective. Find an application for your iphone that helps navigate the subway maps and it's even better!

Great value for overnight stay. Great location! The address was deceiving, we ended up circling the block several times looking for the address. Entrance is actually on 77th Street between Broadway and Amsterdam across from the parking garages.

Great Romantic Getaway
This is a super cute hotel on the Upper West Side. The staff is so polite, and absolutely lovely. Our room was great, and the bed was super comfy. This was a great value for the money.
