This place is a gem! I can't believe how spacious the room was. We travel with two kids so having extra space makes such a difference and so rare to find in New York city. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location is great. close enough to times square/theaters to walk but far enough to be quiet.

Liked: Staff & service
The $40 resort fee is egregious. The bed was nice, the room spacious, the staff very nice. No late check out. Small irritation - there were no USB connection ports anywhere in the room. Many hotels have them now in lamps, clocks etc. The bathroom wallpaper was peeling, doors, walls and furniture dingy. The hotel’s in need of an upgrade/renovation.
