A True New York Gem
This boutique hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Rockerfeller Center, near 5th Avenue shopping, restaurants, Central Park, etc. It's also walking distance to Times Square and other attractions. We were warmly greeted by the front desk clerk whom was very efficient and friendly. One note, the front desk area is very small and if you walk in too quickly you may miss it. We stayed in a Junior Suite with our 15 year old daughter. The room was spacious for three people. It was very clean and we were happy to find lots of pillows on our bed. The bathroom was well stocked with extra bath towels and toiletries. There wasn't a bathtub, however the shower was large and the shower head was height-friendly (adjustable) with good water pressure. We liked that the hotel has a free water bottle dispenser on every floor and guest living room with Internet computers, a fully stocked Keurig coffee machine, newspaper, magazines and a large screen tv. The hotel also a "guest" closet on every floor next to the bottled water dispenser that holds irons, ironing boards, towels, coffee, etc. for guests to help themselves and not have to call and wait for housekeeping. This was our first visit to NYC and we will definitely stay at The Jewel again...don't pass up this gem!
