A Lot better than most of the reviews on here
I was really nervous about staying in this hotel reading a lot of the reviews on this website. Upon initial arrival, the doormen were promt and took my bags, & i could see we were very close to Time Square. Inside the hotel reception was clean, if not a little manic with a huge group checking out (not the hotels fault). My room wasn't available until after 3pm, no issue, so i asked to use the wash facilities in the hotel lobby..... they resembled something you would expect to see in a subway station!!!!! I had booked a delux double, another friend had an ordinary double and another pair of friends were upgraded to a suite with issues on teir room being ready. The delux double, was extremely spacious. The bathroom & room although a bit dated, were very clean, and the bed was comfortable. Make sure you turn the heating off, the room was warm enough without the heating on! My friends ordinary double, was again a little dated, but clean, and perfectly acceptab;le for 4 night stay. The two friends upgraded to a suite, were a little disapointed walking round to their room as they were in the older part of the hotel, however, once inside their room, it was lovely..... and spacious. The location is amazing, its 5 minute walk from Time Square, and only a few blocks from Central Park and across the road from the Carnegie Deli. Very reasonably priced for the location, and in my opinion, not as bad as the reviews.
