Everything You Need in a New York Hotel
Convenient location, great staff, and very clean. It was even quiet at night, which is not always the case in midtown Manhattan. Would stay again without hesitation.

Great staff
I found the hotel clean and loved the location. I could walk to Central Park in one direction and Greenwich Village in the other. What I was most impressed with however was the great front desk staff. They were always friendly and helpful. Great stay.
