Great Hotel for the Price
We have stayed in many hotels in the NYC Times Square area in the $250 to $350 price range. This one is our favorite so far. We stayed here in December 2011 and March 2012 in a King bed with Study room and were satisfied both times. The pros: 1) spacious room by Times Square hotel standards 2) Clean 3) Shower had hot water 4) Nice breakfast included 5) location excellent with Subway station down the street 6) Very nice, helpful staff.
Cons: If you are looking for a luxury hotel with beautifully decorated rooms, this hotel is not for you.
Overall, we had a very pleasant experience at the Hampton Inn and will stay here again whenever we visit NYC.
