Given what I paid, I'd rather go to another hotel.
Pros:

Location is fine.

Cons:

Location is fine, it looks like the hotel is in repair because it was a scaffold around the entrance.
The room was small.
They didn't clean the room on the first day because I didn't know you have to let reception know to have it done every day.
The quality of the breakfast was not good. The breakfast room was very small with not enough tables for so many people.

Awful, I only needed a room for one night.
Cons:

I was out on the ground floor. It is literally a basement and the sink is so tiny. Te toilet was running water when I came in. There’s practically no sheets on the bed unless it’s paper. Also, such a weird shower for an ada room. And the towel they give you could cover one leg. It also smells really bad and you can hear everything from the window to outside. It’s not worth more than $200 a room for a building in Manhattan. It is also in the corner so if you are going to the train you have to walk down the street with your luggage to find a taxi.

Many things to improve. Cleaning staff was great, though.
Pros:

The beds were comfortable and the cleaning staff was great and effective.

Cons:

The breakfast is a nightmare. I didn't bother going downstairs a second morning. Chaos, loads of people, no tables, etc. The reception staff was not polite at all but adequate, at least . All vending machines were out of order. Elevators require long waits.

Overall was ok but not great
Pros:

It was Clean

Cons:

The staff promised to change me to another room up and it never happened. Even if I asked every day, they still didn’t have a room for me. And I booked my room with many time in advance.

Worth just for the location.
Pros:

Location is great. Very close to Times Square.

Cons:

Breakfast is just ok... Space is not good, it cannot accommodate all guests. Actually its is a nightmare. Line to grab food, line to take a table. Hotel was under some refurbishment (main entrance), so not good. Rooms are below ok and cleanness is not good.
