Room was nice, but small and old-fashioned as you would expect in an older hotel. Breakfast is associated with the restaurant attached to the hotel but I did not participate. I did have dinner at the restaurant and it was excellent.

Quiet spot in a great neighborhood (morning coffee from Zabar's!). Take a quick walk to Central Park or use the nearby subway to access the whole city. Rooms are small, as are most in NYC, but very clean. Doormen and housekeeping staff are friendly and efficient. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast at the adjoining restaurant with a hotel discount.
