Disappointed, but...
Disappointed because we obviously got one of the rooms that had not been completely renovated, but that's the luck of the draw.
The room itself was clean. The bed was quite comfortable, to the point where I meant to inquire what kind of mattress it was ( and still may). The staff was excellent. We had a problem with the air conditioner and they fixed it while we had gone out for the day.
We didn't care for the location, only because we didn't realize it really is in the heart of Times Square, about a minutes walk from the TKTS booth. This of course is great if you're looking to see a play. The location, being on 47th st., is in the heart of the theater district, so if you want to see plays this is a great location. If Broadway is not your thing, then just remember this is a 
really busy part of the city and is quite crowded most all of the time. My rating of only three is probably a bit harsh. Had we
been in one of the updated rooms I would likely give it a four. That and the fact I didn't realize exactly where the hotel was, so that's my fault. I would not hesitate to recommend the Edison, especially if Broadway is your thing, but I would try to make sure and get one of the refurbished rooms.
