Fair Hotel - Can't Justify the Price
Stayed at the hotel for one night. 
Pros: -Location is very good
-The staff was friendly
-The TV in the room was very good
-Free internet
Cons: -The hotel still has smoking and you could smell the smoke in the lobby
-The hotel had the feeling of not being that clean - it was on the surface but when we looked around the room, there were stains on the bed skirt and the curtains were ripped
-Rooms were small but that is to be expected in NYC. The bathroom was very small.
-Price - for $500 a night for a small room with two double beds, the price can not be justified
I might be willing to try Holiday Inn again and the hotel would be a 2.5 or 3 but for the price that was charged it was a poor stay.
