Good value in NYC
This hotel is on the corner of 3rd Ave & 24th St, which is a fairly busy intersection - this means lots of traffic noise. Ask for a room on one of the upper floors and/or away from the street for a quieter stay. The room keycards tend to de-activate easily and the hotel's answer is for you to keep them away from cell phones and credit cards. Really??? Otherwise, it's a decent hotel at a good price, with a quirky art deco feel; it's very clean and the few staff members I saw during my stay were friendly and helpful.
