Good Mid-Town location
My wife and I just returned from our first New York trip. We stayed at the Wingate because we have had good luck staying with them before. The hotel was within walking distance of Times Square and the Empire State Building in the middle of the Garment District. We were very fortunate to get an excellent price on our room considering the location. I would have liked to have a pool to use (if we had time) but it wasn't a deal breaker. The hotel was nice, clean and comfortable. The king sized bed was very comfortable, but sleeping was a little difficult due to the annoying vibrating noise that the air conditioning system would make. Not only could we here ours, we could here the units on each side of us. 
The hotel offers a complimentary continental and hot breakfast, which helps to add to the value of the room considering what it could cost to get decent breakfast at most places in New York. The weekend that we were here we had eggs, bacon, waffles, bagels, muffins, danish, cereals, coffee and juices.
The hotel offers free wifi which worked fine the first night but went out the second day and never came back on.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a decent, comfortable hotel and would have no problem returning in the future.
