Room was clean and location was perfect for E subway from JFK (via the Airtrain). Perfect location for sight seeing (1 mile to Central Park/Grand Central and close to Rockefeller/St Patricks Cathedral/5th Avenue) Staff were friendly. No restaurant in the hotel but plenty of food outlets /restaurants within 100 yards (Theres a McDonalds and a Subway in same block and Starbucks etc within a minutes walk). Doorman and concierge were very helpful. The hotel did take a $300 dollar resort tax as expected on arrival but you can get $10 of snacks/drinks from the lobby each day (at $6 for a drink etc it doesnt go far though!).
