Lived up to the Hype
I've stayed at a number of hotels in midtown Manhattan over the years, and in most cases I leave with a much lighter wallet and a sense of regret about having spent so much for so little. That was not the case at Districkt. The check-in staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, even offering several of their personal dining recommendations when I asked about a good place to eat at midnight.
The room was pristine, not worn down and dirty like so many other places I've stayed in midtown. I was also really impressed by the too-good-to-be-true price of $169 when I stayed. I suspect that their prices will go up as they continue to attract so many wary NYC visitors such as myself, but so long as they keep their prices competitive with other hotels in the area, I will be staying here again.
