Good value for NYC hotel
This hotel was good pricewise in comparison to most Manhattan hotels, especially considering it's proximity to Times Square. We found it easy to walk to most attractions, including Times Square, museum mile, Fifth av, Central Park etc. The only time we used transport was to get downtown for sites on the water and Ground Zero. Hotel staff were friendly and accomodating, and free walking tours were on offer.The room itself however was extremely cramped, there was no storage whatsoever so our luggage took up the little floor space there was. Also, be prepared to have no privacy; the bathroom wall is glass with a narrow frosted stripe (including the shower!) and there is a gap between door and glass wall! Hot water was also rather temperamental and our safe broke halfway through our stay. So it was hit and miss, I'd be inclined to stay in a hostel next time.
