Great stay, nice rooms, awesome doormen to welcome

Loved the doormen they made our stay and the rooms while not upgraded entirely had new floors which was helpful and clean. The rooms were much larger than we normally see in NYC and the location is perfect for our family. Didn’t love the early checkin fee but that was my only complaint.

Always a great place to stay. Staff at front desk are friendly and you get $10 worth of drinks/snacks of your choice e per day. I have stayed here several times before and I starting to notice the rooms are dated, particularly the bathrooms. But for nyc the rooms are large and the hotel is comfortable.
