Liked: Staff & service
The front desk staff are professional and respond promptly to requests. Surrounding area of the hotel is fine, convenient for services and subway. The queen-bed size room with kitchenette is small, very small considering the photo that is shown as representing this room. The kitchenette is basically an area of about 3 feet wide with tiny microwave, coffee/tea maker with supplies, and a small refrigerator with tiny freezer. The only drawer contains supplies for meals for 2 people. It works but is very basic. Sometimes housekeeping staff replaced used plates, cups, and flatware with clean ones, but one day the staff just left them for me to wash. New coffee pouches were not replaced, body wash was out and not replaced for 3 days, no bath mat for one day, and no one had cleaned under the bed before my arrival - I found used slippers and one sock remained under the bed for my 6-day stay.

Rockefeller center, and UN building are a few blocks away, and walkable. Overall area seems very safe, even in late evenings and nights.

This hotel was a great stay. We were here for a week recently. Our room was an Executive Junior Suite. The room was large, clean and nicely decorated. The staff was attentive and rooms were cleaned daily. The hotel is in an excellent location. Subway trains are very close by and is walking distance to Rockefeller Center and Grand Central Station. There are also several affordable places to eat close by. If you want a great cup of coffee, Manhattan Espresso Cafe is right behind the hotel. New York Luncheonette is right across the street. Ess-a-bagel and Metro Marche are within a block. All are excellent.

Perfect hotel for New York

We had an amazing experience, we booked a suite for a family of three and it was spacious. The location is perfect, right by Lexington, a short walk to Central Park, Rockerfeller Centre, Central Park, Times Square and shopping on Fifth Avenue. The rooms have air con and the staff are great. The kitchenette was so useful, with the coffee machine, fridge and microwave.
