Great location and pricing
I have stayed here a few times and always enjoy the visit. The prices are quite low and the service is very good. Since I like to stay on the upper west side when I visit, this location is fantastic. Just a short walk to the subway, Zabars, the Shake Shack, and Central Park. They offer check in upgrades that are cheap and definitely worth it. 
My advice is skip mid town and lower Manhattan. Try OTA and see what you think.
