This is one of the best New York City hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The staff is very friendly. The rooms are spotless. The lobby is extremely inviting and comfortable. They have a very fussy coffee machine which I took full advantage of. The included continental breakfast is just right for starting the day off. They offered bagels, muffin, different yogurt, and fresh fruit. I highly recommend and look forward to my next stay.
