Excellent location, comfy beds and good value for money
Pros:

Great location, beds were very comfy and the staff were lovely

Cons:

There was quite a wait for the elevator at times and I think they were changing mattresses over so there were days where the lobby was filled with new mattresses and outside had old ones stacked up. They were using one of the two elevators to take the new mattresses up which left only one elevator for guests to use

Basically good hotel
Pros:

The room was very quiet despite the construction and noise of the neighborhood. It was not a very long walk to the Port authority station for the subway or the bus., also appreciated the great air conditioning that I could control in my room.

Cons:

I found the bed to be kind of lumpy and uncomfortable.. there were only two small elevators for 36 floors of guests. That could be a problem around certain times of the day.. also there was not a fridge or microwave in the room like many other hotels have.

If you care about being near Times Square, this will be a good option but if you don’t care then this might not be the p
Pros:

Great location and most staff were very accommodating and friendly. Breakfast options were good and free water/cookies were appreciated.

Cons:

Asking for a $250 deposit upon arrival when it was not made clear before hand. The use of disposable plates and cutlery is awful as it’s bad for the environment & not the nicest. Only two lifts which become very busy and staff end up disabling 1 lift so they can do their maintenance work or move things quickly whilst it takes forever to get to and from your hotel room. The breakfast area is very tiny and if you arrive any later than 7am, expect to take your food elsewhere or even to your room because there will be no space to eat. The AC can also be extremely loud and will come on randomly at 3am and you’ll think there is a train in your room with how loud it is!!! This was also very expensive with this costing nearly £1000 for a 5 night stay so I feel like you are paying for the convenience of staying near times square & a breakfast every morning rather than a nice hotel stay so keep that in mind.

This hotel was a little home away from home.
Pros:

The front desk officers are very helpful all the time; inquiries are always answered on point. The housekeeping and the people from breakfast are very warm and accommodating.

Cons:

Hopefully the management would do renovation part by part of the building or
make some upgrades in the lobby/ rooms.

Não vale a economia
Pros:

Quarto espaçoso para NY

Cons:

Utensílios de plástico (pratos e talheres) no café da manhã. Apenas 2 elevadores com capacidade para 6 pessoas para 36 andares. Um dia ficamos 30 min esperando o elevador. O carpete do quarto estava grudando e sujo. Um dia acabou o sabonete e fiquei mais de 1h esperando a reposição

Perfect for one night, staff was great!
Pros:

Staff was competent and informative as they experienced technical difficulties. Lobby was clean and was able to work as needed while waiting for the checkin time. Late checkout was available and given with no hesitation.
