Decent
Pros:

The rooms were nice, bed comfy, excellent location.

Cons:

The main gripe was that they gym was appalling. I understand you used to have an agreement with Equinox which is a high quality gym chain.

I visited NYSC to train and the changing rooms / showers were way below the standards of cleanliness and environment I am used to. i also believe the hotel is trying to convey a more upmarket standard than NYSC. In short, the gym, especially the changing areas / showers were grim. You need to find a new gym partner ASAP.

Balcony, Excellent Staff and 5th Ave/Times Square/Broadway adjacent!
Pros:

The Gotham Hotel was very nice but the staff made it excellent.
Olsi, Brandon and Ilda took care of me while I was overwhelmed, overstimulated and overworked - there for 4 nights/5 days for a work convention. They were all kind, extremely proficient, warm, engaging and greeted me a smile and hospitality with every interaction. They helped with everything from toothbrushes to borrowing an umbrella, getting directions, providing tourist related advice, late checkout and so on.

Shout to all the door guys that welcome you with a smile and see you off with a wave....even if you have asked them for the 27th time "do i go left or right for 5th Ave?".

Clean room and consistent daily housekeeping. I also got some credit towards the mini bar at checkin and it was a nice perk!

Located close to Broodway and Time Square. Not far from New York Public Lubrary. 42nd street/Grand Central Station is an 8 minute walk. The room was nice but the balcony was next level! Def get a balcony room.

The lobby is small, restaurant inside but I didn't get to try it. Seemed popular! Not sure of the amenities such as gym, etc as I didnt have time to care between work stuff and you walk miles and miles each day anyways.

Def would stay here again, 5 stars!

Would be staying again and recommending
Pros:

The room was very spacious, and comfortable. The location was excellent. The hotel bar was perfect, with the cocktail list! The staff were always very pleasant and helpful

Cons:

The lighting in the room was very poor. There was no vanity mirror in the room itself, only a floor length mirror and the lighting on this mirror was not suitable for makeup application.
