    Value for money

All the staff here were happy to help.

I enjoyed prime location and the decent service of the team. Overall clean and funky hotel in Midtown East district. Moreover, it's just off big attractions such as grand central terminal and midtown and Subway. Stunningly beautiful view, a large balcony, great bed, too. I used private parking on-site. Plus their wifi was efficient.

I liked my huge room in this hotel.

Chic property, spotless, outstanding service and excellent value. Prime location, right by the Central Station, Times Square, nonetheless the area itself was disgusting. The bed was amazing and it was great having free Wi-Fi and coffee.

Everything was wonderful, hotel offers exemplary service and brilliant location. The staff did all they can for a superb stay. Awesome view, a little balcony, lovely bed, too. Quick check in and smooth check out. Plus their wifi was good. Clean and business venue in Murray Hill district. Moreover, it's just next door to big attractions such as grand central terminal, Brooklyn and Subway.
