Great location and price
I live locally, but stayed with girlfriends from out of town at this hotel for one Sat. night in April for a 'girls weekend'. It was an excellent choice. It's pretty difficult to find rooms with two double beds in Manhattan, and this hotel has them (and there's even still room to walk around the beds because the rooms are a decent size by NYC standards). The location (edge of Soho) is great and the free continental breakfast is also a great perk. Small south-facing terrace on the 19th floor is worth a 5 minute visit, too. Room was clean and surprisingly quiet - our room faced Watts St., which leads into the Holland Tunnel, but the room was quite when we closed the windows to sleep. All in all, an unbeatable value/location for NYC.
