Beautiful Hotel
I and two friends who have never been to N/Y before stayed at this hotel for 6 nights.
After some of the bad reviews i was anxious as i had no problems from the previous hotels i had stayed at before.
Had a quick check in by a very pleasant and polite gentleman who told me i had been upgraded to a king size room (thankyou)
The room was on the 4th floor and appeared to be an refurbished room.
The room was facing a road and i heard the trash men every morning, along with traffic. As i,m a light sleeper this disdurbed me every morning, but hey ho, we were in the city that never sleeps!
Very clean, quick check at the bed revealed no evidence of bed bugs.
Lovely fluffy towels which were replaced daily, air con, perfect, heating perfect, tv, only one channel which was too blurred to watch, but i wasnt in the room long enough to watch it.
Only gripe was that the room safe did not work. I went to reception and was told that i had to be in the room for it to be rectified. 
As i wasnt in the room long enough i didnt bother as i placed my passport, ect, in my friends room safe.
We didnt eat in the hotel but saw some of the meals which looked nice.
We had a few cocktails in the bar which werent cheap $14, but they were a good size and boy did they have a kick! Watch out for the surcharge which is added, it can really bump the bill up.
The hotel is situated in an ideal spot, just a short walk to times square and Grand Central.
Yes it does look old fashioned , but its supposed to!
I would defo go back to this lovely hotel.
