Terrible experience. I arrived at 11 pm for check-in and their system was down. My room had no towels. At 7 am the cleaning staff were arguing loudly in the hallway and woke me up, then knocked on my door at 8 am. On top of that, I had an allergic reaction during my stay. Definitely not coming back.

No air condition thermostat so I had to call for an engineer to adjust the temperature. Even so, it was freezing all night which caused us not to sleep well.

Great location to Times Square and shopping

Location is key to this hotel! Very close to Times Square and walking distance to all Broadway shows. Hotel does have only 3 limited elevators and sometimes 2 of the elevators would be out of service. Room is small but standard for NYC rooms. Clean and sufficient for a 3 day stay.
