First time in the Big Apple
I stayed here for a week, along with my 2 friends. We arrived at 11 pm on Sunday night and was suprised the hotel is right next to the 9/11 memorial. Btw, we recived tickets to the memorial, compliments of the hotel. Our room was clean, small, but manageable. Plus I was expecting it as I read other comments about New York City. We had a small kitchinette with most of the things you need such as plates, bowls, glasses, utensils, and pots. In the hallway of every floor, there is a filtered water station with a well stocked supply of empty bottles. There is also a washer and dryer on the 12th floor, you just need your own detergent. On the common living room there is an awesome coffee/esspreso/cappuchino machine. And they have complimantary tea, sodas, fresh fruit and depending on the time of day prepackaged pasties such as special k and such. Free computer use and a nice little area to just relax. 
It is a green hotel. the shower and toilet are adjusted as such. But I can't complain about the shower pressure. They have cards that ask you to please re-use towels, but they are very helpful when you need additional towels. Housekeeping did a great job of keeping the room tidy every day. 
It is a must to go to either the terrace or the restaurant on the 20th floor, or both. The views are breathtaking. From the restaurant you get an amazing view of the 9/11 memorial. From the terrace, it's another great view Manhattan.
On the second day we were there it was raining pretty hard. The hotel had umbrellas for its guests, which I thought it was great. This hotel is in a great location, like I said right next to the memorial. It is close to battery park where you can get the ferry to Liberty Island and Ellis Island. Also Wall street is a short walking distance. Although I didn't use the subway, they were within a block or two. Before I forget, my room was not facing the memorial and although there was construction going on, I didn't hear any of it.
I would recommend this hotel. And would come back to this or any of the other Club Quarters( if they are as great as this one).
