Almost terrible
Ok... bad hotel, that's for sure but :
Pros :
- location : amazing ! nothing to say, now I understand why some 3 or even 4 stars hotels located on the upper-west side are cheaper. 
- free wifi (yay!!)
- beds are extremely confortable
Cons :
- room size : you are going to sleep in a shoe box. Take note of that.
- bathroom : small. old. shower is awful. hot water is not even provided on a regular basis. 
- Staff : worst staff in NYC. Not even a smile, nothing. execrable.
- Breakfast : worst breakfast in NYC. Do not go there, it's disgusting and the atmosphere is terrible.
- noise : it's a noisy hotel, there are people screaming around all the time, doors & windows are old and noisy, etc.
- i think that's enough.
Enjoy the location ! ;)
