I believe this hotel can do better. They are in a very central location close to Grand Central Station. I liked the comfort of the mattress and the room was clean. The bathroom had some issues in the first room we got. There was water flowing in reverse into the bath and bringing dirt with it. They changed our room and the other room was fine. A “destination fees” was added that could have been included in the reservation fees paid to Orbitz for the booking.

We stayed 4 nights. Not one day did we have a hot shower. Luke warm at best. On the third day we got a later start leaving the room around 12:30. I came back after about an hour and they were just finishing cleaning our room. The cleaner asked me if we were going to leave earlier the next day so she could get in and clean. I explained that we checked out the next day so we would be gone by 11:00. She said ok. The next morning we received a knock on the door before 9 am even though we had the do not disturb sign out asking when we were leaving so they could clean the room. My husband told her we would be out by 11:00 which was check out time. Our flight left later in the day so we had them hold our luggage. The man that helped with the luggage was not friendly or nice and had a very negative attitude. In fact in all of our coming and goings no one ever said "hello" or "welcome" or anything. The bright spot was a lady that worked the counter who always had a smile and who was always friendly and nice. I was excited to stay here but probably wouldn't recommend after this visit.
