The room was clean and the staff was nice and helpful, but i stayed on 2nd floor in the rear, noise from the upper floor was constant. And cigarette smoke smell came from downstairs, really really bad.

The thing that I missed the most was the ability to control the room temperature other than opening/closing the window since it had a heater but didn't have an ac. Otherwise, everything was really good, even the shared bathroom.

I love this place. 2nd time staying here. Very clean and in a great location. Very close to many hot spots on the city. The price is great for what you get. The bathrooms are shared, but I never had to wait to use it. I will say that there is no elevators in the building, so if you are not staying on the first floor you have to use the stairs. Not a huge deal as it keeps you in shape, just like the walking in the city does! For parking we used the Madison Square garden garage, as it is just 2 blocks away.
