Not bad, not great.

Not bad, not great. Internet was very slow. I chose this hotel over others because there was supposed to be parking, but in the end there was no parking, and either way the garage was quite a distance from the hotel, and not free. I'm generally not a very picky person, but I would definitely choose something else if I'm in the same area in the future.

Great hotel. Very clean, cozy and accommodating. Good breakfast. Stayed in a double bed room, and although it is a little on the small size, still was very comfortable. The view of NY from the bedroom window is lovely. Location is great with walking distance to the Subway Station which puts you anywhere you want to go in NYC. Houskeeping did a great job. Fresh towels and toiletries everyday. Beds are comfortable and clean. Staff is very nice and helpful. Would recommend anyone to stay here and will definitely come back if I had to.
