Pretty disappointed and nicest thing was the lobby
First of all, I was super annoyed that they don't have a front door that automatically opens or even a door man! It was very annoying trying to prop open the door with luggage. Also, to the hotel employee who was cleaning the glass doors and who I thought was going to open the door for us, you suck for walking away! 
Check-in was smooth but I was a little annoyed that we had to wait 5 minutes for the other check-in clerk to call us over even though he wasn't helping anyone. The lobby is really nice and a great place to hang-out. The elevators were also very fast. We ended up getting drinks at the bar and taken back by the automatic 20% gratuity! Our 5 drinks for two people ended up costing $160. The pouring of my $25/glass scotch doesn't warrant a $5 tip! Didn't get to check-out the roof top bar but heard dress code was pretty strict even for hotel guests.
Our room (#702) was tiny! Booked the room for $160 (including tax) through a promo so I wasn't much but the size disappointed. Also, TV reception was poor (there was static). Our room was nicely decorated and the "rain fall" open shower was nice. On TV check-out didn't work so we called the front desk and check-out was smooth.
The hotel is right next to central park and there's a Shake Shack about 5 blocks away. Also, wifi is like $13. 
Before staying here we stayed at the Hampton Inn near the Empire State building which offered free breakfast, free wifi, and larger room for less money. I don't mind paying more for better service and amenities but this hotel is lacking in both categories.
