propre et bien placé
Pros:

ménage impeccable et personnel très attentionné. endroit très bien placé et la terrasse était vraiment un bon atout.

Cons:

peut-être prévenir les voyageurs que certains pods n’ont pas de fenêtre (les volets de notre chambre ne pouvaient pas s’ouvrir, c’est dommage). les photos ne correspondaient pas non plus à la chambre. la salle de bain était presque plus spacieuse que la chambre.

Pros:

Espectacular en todos los aspectos. La atención impecable en cada oportunidad tanto en frontdesk como el bar y el personal de limpieza. La ubicación es inmejorable en cercanía con zonas de interés, seguridad y comercios. No tocó una habitación un poco más espaciosa, de todos modos tiene justo lo que se necesita para un viaje como este. Muy cómoda la cama y el baño todo funcionó perfecto. Mejora mucho la experiencia que ofrezcan el café a la mañana. Estamos muy contentas y lo recomendaremos.

Cons:

Solo poca intimidad en el baño al ser de vidrio.

Okay
Pros:

Location and Style was perfect

Cons:

That I paid for a hotel with rooftop and bar but this was closed for a private event. Very disappointing because I’d have booked another hotel if I knew that before. Kind of misleading because you definitely pay a premium for something that wasn’t accessible in the evening. The romantic thought of hanging out there to see the lights etc. was not possible for the first night.

Convenient and value for money.
Pros:

The location is great, convenient to Grand Central and midtown generally. Free coffee in the morning is awesome. Clean and easy. My third summer in a row staying there and I would do it again. Value compared to other prices in NYC.

Cons:

I would like a mini fridge in the room, but there isn't a lot of space so I get it.
