The staff were absolutely amazing. So helpful for me and my family. They stored our bags all day after we checked out, hailed a cab and helped with separate reservations with ease. I had a hard time sleeping with the pillows the hotel had, but other than that the room was perfect and liked having the door to the bedroom along with a living area/sleep sofa. Would definitely stay here again!

I loved everything about this hotel. Very nice front desk staff. Left balloons and candy in room for my daughter’s 19th birthday. Stores our luggage until check in. The lounge area where you can freshen up before check in. Very nice and clean room. I will definitely be booking again when I return to NYC!
