Great Value on West Side with free parking!
Stayed here on a Friday night. Booked on one of those travel sights and decided to give it a try due to the good review and the free parking. Parking will cost you on average $40 overnight depending on where you are staying.. and some hotels the parking is a few blocks away. So we decided to stay here so we could park, check-in, and then walk to our event quickly. 
The person at the front desk was nice, asked for my name, and within 2 seconds handed me my receipt and 2 keys. I asked if he needed anything - he said "no" it's prepaid, you're all set. Great!
Back into the car drive up one level and park - that easy. The elevators were out in both buildings so that was a bit of a pain (I don't know if this is one of those things where they are permanently out of service and they always have a sign "pardon our appearance while we upgrade our elevators.") So, if that is important to you give them a call and see if they are working.
The room was actually quite big for a Manhattans room. It is on par with a standard sized hotel room in the rest of the country. There were 2 double beds, comforters were clean, neat, flat panel TV, sits upon a large dresser / Fridge and microwave cabinet, there is a desk with a chair. The fridge was a medium sized fridge with room in the door for cans - it was cold and clean! Microwave was medium sized.
Bathroom had hairdryer - worked, a tub with shower, and sliding doors on the tub. Shower head was one of those large sunflower types - The entire bathroom was clean and not a sign of mold, soap scum or anything. The bathroom is small but nicely laid out - aka the door does not open into the toilet.
There was even a fairly deep closet to store large bags and hang up items.
The hotel has a motel type setup.. some rooms you walk in from the outside, which overlooks the nice pool, and your window is next to the door overlooking the hotel courtyard. This is nice because it stays quiet. It seemed to me that all the windows in the rooms overlook the pool and courtyard.
The pool was nice and clean, we didn't use, but walked by it and took note that it was clean and if I was a kid - would love to take a swim in NYC. Honestly, this is the only outdoor pool I think I've seen in NYC other than rooftop pools.
It takes about a good 25 minutes to walk from this hotel to Grand Central Station (at New Yorker speed) - to give you a gauge.
Overall, would stay there again. Great value hotel, with free parking (in/out privileges).
