    dated decor

    I had a nice stay, with a comfortable room and friendly staff who were always eager to help. However, the air conditioning was quite loud, which disrupted my sleep, and I encountered some unexpected charges at check-in. It's a good spot for families looking for spacious accommodations with a central location.

    king suite
    great location

    would stay there again

    The one-bedroom king suite was super spacious and comfy, with a kitchenette featuring a microwave, refrigerator, and coffee maker. Daily cleaning was on point. The location was super convenient too, near shops and two subway lines. The fitness center looked nice but I didn't get to check out the spa.

    weird hallway smell

    Great stay with awesome staff!

    Had a fab time! The location was super convenient, and the beds were seriously comfortable. Big shoutout to Margaret, our housekeeper—she was a total gem and made us feel at home. Jeremiah in the lobby was also really friendly. One downside, though, was that the hallway had a bit of an odd smell, which wasn’t great.

    Spacious Suites and Great Location

    I recently enjoyed a comfortable stay with my family in a spacious one-bedroom suite, which included a handy kitchen area for snacks. The location was perfect, allowing us to explore NYC while being in a quieter spot. However, the hotel could improve by offering more amenities and clearer communication regarding hidden fees. All in all, it felt like a great home base for our adventure!

    great location but lacking some amenities

    The spacious suite provided plenty of room for my family to spread out comfortably. The city view from the suite was truly a highlight of our stay.

    Some basic amenities were missing in the suite, which impacted our overall comfort.

    meditation sessions
    birthday surprises
    limited dining options

    We loved the On Demand Meditation feature. The special surprise set up for their birthday with stuffed animals and cookies truly made our stay memorable, creating a homey vibe.

    In my wife’s opinion, there could be more family-friendly dining options available, especially breakfast.

    The suite was spacious and well-furnished, featuring a kitchenette that made it easy to prepare snacks and beverages.

The hotel's location was ideal for my meetings, with easy access to transportation and nearby restaurants.

    cozy armchair
    spacious room
    friendly doormen
    underwhelming lobby
    slow front desk service

    The rooms were spacious and comfortable, featuring a cozy corner with an armchair perfect for relaxing after a day in the city. The kitchenette was a great touch, making it easy to prepare snacks and drinks. Loved that the beds were super comfortable, and the doormen were always friendly and welcoming!

    The lobby was a bit underwhelming.
