This hotel was great jeff the doorman was the best , organise everthing , he the man, the hotel was central close to the action , a walk to the theartres was no problem we stayed 4 nights and enjoyed it ,the bed was real comfortable, the air conditioner was a bit noisy, but ok if turned off may a different story in the summer thiughMore
My daughter and & I visited during a spring trip to check out a college. This hotel was very clean and looked freshly rennovated in upscale style. Amenities are minimal, but was ok with us as we didn't plan on spending too much time in the room. The double room (one bed) we shared was very small, but not surprised for a NY hotel room. The location was great, just around the corner from Ed Sullivan Theater ("Late Night" w/ David Letterman) and just a couple of blocks to Central Park & Columbus Circle and close to the theater district. Just at the north end of Times Square, there is lots to do and everything one needs is close by. The lobby is a bit modern for my taste, but that didn't matter much to me and it does not reflect the style of the rooms. I paid with a package w/ airfare, so I felt the combo deal was a good value for the money.

I took a chance on a name your own price hotel for a weekend to the city and got a great, comfortable place. very modern, and renovated on the inside, the rain shower was great after a long day of walking around. the room was a queen size bed, closet, tv, bathroom and not much more, but you don't normally expect large rooms in nyc. there was construction that ran from 8 am till midnight on the weekday we were there that was right outside our window, but I couldn't really fault the hotel for that.
The location was perfect, right off Broadway a couple of blocks north of times square and just a few blocks south of central park. Easy access to subway as we took the train to Penn station. the front desk staff were extremely helpful, courteous and attentive. Overall a great value if you are staying one or two nights for sightseeing.

This is a small boutique hotel in an excellent location for walkers.
The rooms are small, as are the bathrooms but who goes to NYC to stay in the room?
They have a lovely small bar in the lobby and 24 hr room service.
The staff, from doorman to front desk to housekeeping make you feel welcome and are very accommodating.
The only problem is the construction across the street. It does start a bit early.
For an affordable centrally located friendly hotel in TImes Square, I would be happy to stay again.
This is a decent and comfortable hotel in a good location for Times Square, for all the fans of neon out there. Personally I find Times Square to be the least lovely part of an amazing city, worth visiting once at night rather than making it the basis of a visit, but clearly I'm in the minority on this one.
This is a hotel which has had a design makeover, rather than a place which was conceived as a design hotel. It is stylish enough, and almost certainly more elegant than many other dull hotels in this part of the city. Compared to the true design hotels scattered across Manhattan, this falls slightly short. The lobby area - dominated by red furniture - is initially impressive, but sit in the bar beside it for a few minutes and you'll realise that something subtle is missing. It is a combination of the slightly misplaced cheesy music, a slight coldness to the furniture, an annoying beeping door somewhere which interrupts your drinks, and maybe just a few missing cushions or objects to really finish the area off in style.
It is the same deal with the bedroom. The bed is comfortable, with excellent linen, the walls are stylishly decorated and it all feels very modern. But sit there for a minute and you'll see the missed details. My room had a deep closet with no light in it, so when you unpack you will hang your clothes up (and try to retrieve them in the morning) in complete darkness. The bathroom is stylish, but the two shower taps are on chrome plates which are not fixed to the wall so they were both lopsided. It had no impact on being able to use the rainforest shower, but it was just a sign that the final few percent of attention that would make this a 'five circle' rating had been missed.
In the truly stylish hotels, you could cut them through and they would bleed interior designers and stylists. In this place, if you cut it through you would find a marketing person and a harried project manager with a clipboard, ticking things off without quite getting it.
Very good overall, and a noble leap forward from something plastic and soulless, particularly in this bustling, touristy and restless part of town. But if you want a true design experience, head to somewhere like the excellent Mondrian Soho or the Soho Grand.

We stayed here for five nights, the location was great only a few minutes walk from Times square. Our room on the 5th floor was clean and very modern with a Broadway view. The staff were excellent and rang to book our helicopter tour for us. I'd love to stay there again.
