Girls Weekend
Just got back from a 3 night stay at this property. Overall, I was very pleased with the hotel and my experience there. I've stayed in several other Residence Inn properties throughout the U.S. and this one is comparable. 
The lobby area is a bit small but we arrived mid day so it wasn't too crowded. Our rooms weren't ready so the guest agent (Tino??) suggested storing our bags with the bellman and heading out for lunch. He asked for a cell phone number and called me when our rooms were ready which was nice. I had reserved 2 king studio suites and asked to be in close proximity to one another and he made sure they were side by side! We were on the 31st floor and had expansive views of the Empire State Building and 6th Ave. Especially beautiful at night.
The rooms were large by NYC standards but the bathroom was TINY. Barely enough room to get the door open past the sink and toilet. Not very useful when you have 4 girls sharing a bathroom!! The carpets in the room were a bit worn and draperies needed to be cleaned. 
The king bed was super comfy with lots of pillows and triple sheeting. The biggest downfall of the room was the quality of the pull out sofabed. The mattress was thin and well worn which allowed the springs underneath to push through making it feel like you were sleeping on a bag of nails! This made for a very uncomfortable nights sleep. In hindsight, we should have gone with a regular room with 2 double beds as we didn't end up using the kitchenette.
Breakfast was included in the room rate and was top notch! A huge range of choices for even the pickiest eater/food allergies- oatmeal, eggs, bacon, waffles and pancakes and several types of fresh fruit and yogurt. The coffee could have been stronger but there was Starbucks served in the lobby (for a fee). Keep an eye on the breakfast hours and they ended a bit earlier then I thought they would.
The location was fantastic being between the Fashion District and Times Square/Broadway. Make sure you wear comfortable walking shoes!!
This hotel was great and I would return again.
