Well located hotel in midtown Manhattan
My family and I stayed at the Hotel Metro for four nights whilst visiting New York. 
Good points:
Great location, 2 minutes from 5th Avenue, 5 minutes from the Empire State building. Very clean hotel and efficient service. Nice little bar attached to hotel. Great views from rooftop terrace.
Downside: The general breakfast experience was not great, shabby dirty furniture, we had to clear our own tables, which were not cleaned after previous guests had used them. Paper plates and plastic cutlery did not enhance the experience. Although rooms were clean there was constant noise from air conditioning units at the back of the hotel, when we complained we were moved promptly but the noise was still evident (perhaps a common problem in a city like New York ?)
Tips: New York is an expensive city to eat in, unless you like to live on hotdogs or pretzels, however we found a very good, reasonably priced restaurant just around the corner on 5th ave - the Heartland Brewery, contemporary American cuisine and a good choice of beers, it was recommended by the hotel concierge.
