I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The cleanliness was top-notch, with super clean facilities and a spotless room. The hotel facilities were impressive, especially the fully equipped gym and the excellent café and restaurant attached. The location was very convenient, with easy access to transportation and a central location in the Flatiron District. The staff was friendly and positive, providing excellent service throughout my stay.
Nothings.
The hotel had great facilities, including a well-equipped gym and a fun arcade in the lobby. The staff was outstanding, always approachable and helpful. The location was perfect, with easy access to public transportation and a great Mexican restaurant just across the street from the hotel.
Almost perfect.
We absolutely loved the eclectic collection of furniture and artwork throughout the hotel. The welcoming warmth of all areas, especially the common spaces on the ground floor, are to be applauded. The staff could not have been more helpful, addressing our out-of-the-ordinary requests for extra amenities and late check-out. The location was great, with two subway stations relatively close by and within walking distance to major attractions like Times Square and the Empire State Building.
Nothing, all was good.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The room was surprisingly spacious and comfortable to move around in. The bed was absolutely heavenly - I had the best night's sleep. The bathroom was also newly renovated and had a great layout, making great use of the small space. The decor in the room was cool and stylish. The hotel lobby was beautifully decorated, and the rooftop bar was a great spot to relax and enjoy a drink. The hotel's location was superb, with easy access to popular attractions like Times Square, Macy's, and the Empire State Building. It was also conveniently close to two metro lines, making it easy to explore the city. Additionally, there were plenty of restaurants in walking distance, including a delicious Mexican place and a convenient store nearby. The staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful, providing excellent service throughout my stay.
Nothing, no complaints at all.
