    Bit tight with the water

    The rooms were ok and bed very comfortable. My husband and I had a double bed each but defo not big enough to share! Shower door didn’t close properly but ok. My daughter had 4 in her room and left two bottles of water, when she queried it they said only 2 allocated to a room + not restocked each day. Breakfast ok. Good choice of menu.

    A nice hotel in a very ideal location

    A nice hotel in a very ideal location. Everything was okay during our stay. It would be even perfect if they have a kettle for boiling water as we like to drink tea before we sleep. You can hear the police car’s sirens from outside and because our visit was during christmas, so the sirens were constantly ringing. On our first night we couldn’t really sleep, but luckily the second night we were too tired and can sleep through the whole night.

    Great location.

    This was my second stay here. Undoubtably an excellent location for a tourist/holiday traveler. Rooms are a bit small but for New York standards that’s understandable. Breakfast needs some improvement as it’s been the same and the biggest issue being that even plates with food are cleared up even when you’ve just gone for a minute to get a quick refill or a coffee. I did mention this issue to the restaurant Manager and suggested that they must put some small plaques so that the guests could let the staff know whether they were done or still eating. This would prevent a tremendous amount of food wastage which was otherwise evident every day. Also there is need for electric kettles in the rooms. To have to go down to the lobby each time to get a drink of warm water is a downer specially when it’s freezing outside. But inspite of these observations, I would not hesitate to recommend the hotel if you’re getting a decent price.
