Pleasant experience that lived up to TA reviews
Selected based on TA reviews, which proved accurate. A pleasant room, modern, comfortable, decent size, everything worked. I was on the 16th floor which was quiet. Front desk staff were consistently enthusiastic, helpful and a pleasure to interact with. Printing pages from the modern Macs in the lobby was painless. The restaurant/bar started to grow on me and I was happy with the $10 continental buffet breakfast. I very much appreciated the free passes to the excellent Mid-City Gym, a few minutes walk away. Not a lot of other facilities, but who needs them? Access to the Times Square madness and theaters is easy, but not too close. Many, many food options nearby. Will go back if the prices stay this reasonable (by Manhattan standards).
