New York New York
Pros:

The location. Right by Times Square. 2 minute walking. Near the Subway stations to go everywhere in New York. If you want to walk, Central Park is also 10 minute walk. Overall you are in Times Square. So it’s always good.

Cons:

The room was not clean on our first day.
We encounter water under the bed and a centipede in our room in one of the beds.

No esta mal pero por el mismo dinero hay opciones mejores
Pros:

Me gusto la ubicación pero para muchos puede ser ruidosa. Muy cerca de time square, se escucha ruido hasta entrada la madrugada, a mi no me molesta. El hotel super conveniente por su ubicacion

Cons:

No tienen ningun servicio. no vi maquinas expendedoras, no podes comprar ni un agua. EL hotel en si es solo hotel y esta bien pero no ofrece ningun plus. No tienen heladeras en los cuartos. El aire era SUPER RUIDOSO. el baño chiquito. no hay donde colgar la toalla para secar. Hay hoteles con mas prestaciones por lo que vale este. EL CHECK IN RIGUROSO A LAS 16 horas! Muy tarde!!!!!!!!!

Pros:

A localizacao nao podia ser melhor, consegue fazer tudo andando e tem estacoes de trem e metro muito proximas.
Para uma estadia curta, por exemplo, voce consegue fazer os principais pontos a pé.
No geral, nao tive nenhum problema e gostei muito do hotel!

Cons:

O wifi realmente foi o ruim. Meu esposo precisava por trabalho e nunca conectava.
Tambem é algo essencial para planejarmos os roteiros, os passeios do dia seguinte e simplesmente nao havia internet...entao tivemos que contratar um chip de internet, coisa que nao tinhamos precisado fazer ate entao.
