Excelente localização, hotel e quartos confortáveis e staff excepcional.
Pros:

O hotel é muito bem localizado na região de Midtown. Andando fica há duas quadras da Catedral de St. Patrick e há 8 minutos para o Rockefeller Center. A estação de metrô, 51-St, fica há uma quadra do hotel. Na mesma quadra, e no entorno do hotel, existem vários restaurantes para começar o dia, com um bom breakfast, e algumas boas opções para almoço e jantar. A estrutura do hotel é muito boa, os quartos são grandes e as camas muito confortáveis. O quarto oferece geladeira, uma máquina de café com refis, que eram disponibilizados todos os dias, bem como duas garrafas de água mineral. E ainda, microondas, pratos, talheres, taças e copo. As fotos do quarto, no nosso caso, o com duas camas de casal Queen, retrataram bem a realidade encontrada. O hotel ainda possui um sala de ginástica e um mezanino com computadores e máquina de refrigerante e snacks. Mas o grande diferencial do hotel foi o staff, todos muito atenciosos e educados, principalmente com meu filho de 11 anos, desde nosso check-in ao nosso check-out, e durante os 8 dias que nos hospedamos. Destaque para Bobby, Cristal, José, Candace e Michael. Vocês foram incríveis, obrigado! Certamente me hospedaria no local novamente.

Fantastico!
Pros:

Hotel situato in ottima posizione, zona tranquilla centrale. Pochi minuti a piedi per raggiungere diversi punti di interesse, circa 10/15 min da Time square, central station, Rockefeller, central park etc.. tutto il resto con la metropolitana grazie alla fermata vicino all’hotel.

Struttura molto accogliente, camera grande e pulita, adatta alla nostra famiglia di 5 persone, con pulizia quotidiana. Due bottiglie d’acqua fornite ogni giorno con la possibilità di riempire bottiglie/borracce.

Personale cordiale, per la nostra prima volta a NY soluzione top!
