Near Union Square, central and easy to walk, transit or taxi. Hotel is charming and old fashioned, love the gated elevators, hand paintings on the walls and the window shutters. Staff are polite, helpful and friendly. My room was spacious and had microwave, small refrigerator, and hair dryer. There are lots of restaurants and markets nearby. Breakfast includes make your own waffles, several breads, hot and cold cereal, boiled eggs, fruit, juice, tea and coffee. I will definitely stay here again.
