Great NYC Trip
Sunday room special, "Cozy Room" for $129! Wow - great rate for NYC - seems to be only during the summer months. Parking - $48 bucks - almost 200 total with taxes and parking. Still a supper deal for Manhattan. Drove there - no problems - Garmin doesn't work in NYC - memorize the directions! No place to park - double parked and gave the key to the Valet. We checked in around Noon - greeted by very friendly staff and given a room on the 30th floor - out of 31. We were able to go up and get settled - some view of the "lipstick building" and third Ave - not anything great from our room but nothing to complain about - 3010. Nice big clean room with a fridge - felt comfortable walking barefoot - new carpet - very clean and new room!, king bed and sofa bed, big flat screen TV, free internet - easy to connect to. Easy walk to Rockefeller center, Grand Central or Times Square area. Lots of places for breakfast close by (Ess-A-Bagel was good) Breakfast in either direction - very close to subway. Everyone at the hotel very friendly - they checked our bags - held the doors - no fancy lobby - but everything you need. Parking was $48 every 24 hours with an hour grace period. The people at this hotel were the friendliest in all of NYC - it is so nice to feel welcomed in the big city!
