The hotel takes less than 5 minutes to walk to Berkeley School, and the subway is within 3 minutes, and there are many restaurants nearby, and the hotel breakfast is excellent. The staff was friendly, the hotel was safe, and it was so nice.

Centrally located. Easy, friendly check-in. Well appointed but would have liked some water in the room and fold out sofa bed is pretty bad, so I would not recommend the suite if you plan on using that.
