Good location
The Affinia Manhattan has a great location central to everything, right across the street from Madison Square Garden. Around the corner from Macy's and a few blocks away from Times Square.
The hotel itself was ok. The bathrooms are tiny and old, they have not been updated in the renovations. The hotel was very noisy, we were provided ear plugs however due to elevator noise and running up and down the hall from other guests sleeping was difficult. 
The safe in our room did not work, maintenance resolved this issue. There is a fridge in the rooms however no water or supplies are provided. Good thing there is grocery stores close by. 
Overall I enjoyed my time in NYC it is a great city and you do not spend much time in the hotel.
