Nice Hotel

Spent a couple nights here to drop of my child to college nearby. The hotel has an old-school charm which might not appeal to everyone but it was a great location, rooms were clean and the entire staff was excellent. Will stay here again. Having a drink on the roof top bar was nice.

Great for a quick 24 hour stay in NYC. Friendly staff and great location in UWS.
Terri, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Basic room in a great location. Staff were very friendly. The rooftop bar/restaurant was an added bonus.
Michelle, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

When we checked in the rooftop pool was closed. We were told it would be open till end of September. The AC wasn't working in our room, so they wanted to give us fans. The room was 80 degrees. We pushed and they moved us to a room with 2 beds. Photos are pretty, but the hotel needs major upgrading. VERY disappointing for $600/night!!!!!
James, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Not great

The rooms were dark. The wallpaper was peeling. The air conditioner was noisy. There were no amenities like cotton, Q tips, no coffee or tea options.
Karyn, 2-night trip
