Great place I'm hooked.

Wow, this place is super! There's usually no loyalty under $500 for New York Hotels, but this place may have just changed that for me. Big old solid pre-century hotel with think walls so you never hear anything, and rooms that are bigger than most NYC 1 bedroom apartments. Its quiet and clean and comfortable and still in the center of it all.
