Best hotel to ensure a pleasant nyc stay
We love this hotel and if we end up somewhere else we always wish we were at the Affinia Dumont (better than the other Affinia's as well). It's convenient but not in a crazy area and very accessible to everywhere--Times Square, Central Park, shopping--and you can get to trendy restaurants within 15 minutes. We visit about 3-4 times a year, and have brought our dog to the hotel as well. Rooms are spacious and mini kitchens make the whole visit a lot more relaxing. 
Do check your bill carefully. I have booked at special rates and then charged differently at check out. Once i proved my rate via my email confirmation they happily adjusted.
