Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location was excellent, just steps away from Central Park, and close to the subway for easy access to all the sites. The rooms were spacious, clean, and surprisingly quiet, making for a comfortable stay. The only downside was the view facing a wall and no daylight, but overall, a great stay!
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and comfortable but lacked proper lighting and were occasionally disrupted by loud cleaners. The service was excellent, with incredibly friendly and helpful staff making my stay enjoyable. The location was perfect for exploring NYC, being close to Central Park and key attractions. However, the dining options were limited with an unappealing view, and the noise levels from outside were quite noticeable at times.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were spacious, luxurious, and spotless, offering a fantastic experience, although the noise from the aircon outside my window facing a brick wall was quite disturbing. The service was superb, with incredibly friendly and helpful staff, including the housekeeper. The location was fantastic, close to Central Park and upmarket shops, making it well worth the price, although the view from the windows wasn't the most picturesque. Dining options were quite good, and the facilities offered all the basic amenities I expected from an apartment-style hotel.
The hotel has clean and good-sized rooms facing the back of the hotel, though could benefit from a larger bathroom. The service is exceptional, especially from the very attentive manager, Eugene. The location is unbeatable, near Central Park and 5th Avenue. The dining options are limited to a penthouse setup, with complimentary breakfast. Overall, a terrific stay with a few room for improvements.
