Great first impressions, arrived slightly earlier than the normal check in time. The kind receptionist went straight away to check if our room was available and to our luck it was. Very grateful after a long flight from the UK.
Location: Fantastic location, within a 5 minute walk to Times Square. If using the Hop on Hop off Bus, the stop is not far from the hotel at all.
Facilities: Room was on the small side (but not unusual for New York) lovely comfortable bed. Bathroom was good nice large shower, although the hot water was a little slow to come through. The room also had a small kitchenette with coffee machine and a fridge. Some previous reviews mentioned they could ear noise from the street, don't get me wrong you can hear it but it certainly didn't keep us awake at night.
Breakfast: simple but effective, continental breakfast compromising of bagels, toast, yoghurts, pastries etc. Started the day right.
Overall this was a great hotel and would recommend it to anyone looking for a decent hotel in the city. Would stay here again.
