This was a fine little place. Staff was friendly, room was comfortable and clean. This met my needs perfectly. The property itself is definitely old and out of date, from the faded wall paper, aged furnishings, baseboards and trim, and carpet, but I was still satisfied with the building as a whole.

The hotel is north of the craziness of Times Square but close enough to walk to any theater, eating establishments and Central Park. Rooms were clean. The hotel could be a little more generous with larger size shampoo, etc…. I’ve never seen such small sizes. Also, towels could be a bit fluffier. The same with the pillows.

The staff were excellent at this hotel. Couldn’t do enough as there was a problem with the room. The rooms were dated and sofa was supposed to be blue, but had a very worn dirty look to it. The hotel will be amazing with a new sofas and chairs and a redecoration.

I read horror reviews so was really worried about what we would find. Firstly, location is fantastic. Size of the room is great. Yes, it is dated but that's not a deal breaker for me. There were some things that definitely let the experience down. We had 1 towel in our room for 4 people. I asked for more towels which were sent up. But the next day those 4 towels were taken and replaced with... 1 towel. So from then on I tried to catch the housekeepers cart to grab the towels myself. Such a silly thing for them to repeatedly get wrong. Also insufficient toiletries and crockery for 4 people. Showers were great first few days.but after that barely warm. The quilts on the beds did not have quilt covers - just the bare quilt with a sheet underneath. Staff were friendly with each interaction and happy to assist with baggage on our day of checkout for $2 a bag. It was safe and clean with a great location. Shame those other things brought down the experience.

The hotel was convenient to everything in mid town manhattan. The room was very spacious for our family of five. The furniture is definitely outdated however if you can overlook that then you will like this hotel.

The property is nicely located near Central Park, many restaurants, subway etc but the hotel is listed as a 4 star on Expedia and it is far from a 4. I would maybe give it a 2 or 2.5 at most. The elevator is extremely small so if you don’t like small spaces and don’t want to walk 20 flights of stairs this is not the hotel for you. The rooms are small but I’m kind of expected in NYC. We did find hair in the shower/tub, door latch was broken off, some shoved an ear plug into the peep hole so people couldn’t look in, the walls are paper thin… but a least there was AC because the hallways and lobby were super hot. Will not be staying here in the future.

This poor hotel is literally falling apart
Front desk couldn't check us in at 5 pm because of broken ACs and water leaks in their available rooms, needed an hour or so to find a room for us. Everywhere you looked was peeling wallpaper, scuffed furniture, broken fixtures. Nothing in this hotel has been repaired or replaced in decades. Toiletries and towels were bare-minimum and staffing was skeletal, even on a weekend. The front desk didn't even have toothpaste. At least it was clean, and the AC and plumbing worked. But don't expect anything more than a bed and a bathroom in a convenient midtown location.

Room that was booked was unavailable due to broken a/c and plumbing. After 15 minute wait at reception, we were placed in a shabby room that also had broken a/c. Maintenance worker was rude. Management made no response to our request for a different room, upgrade or refund. So we left

Hotel has not refunded money promised for downgrading our room due to AC not working. Incredibly difficult to get a hold of them. Love the location. Manager has deflected attempts to speak to me. Will update when response comes in. Hope they make it right
