spacious and convenient stay

amazing spacefriendly staffroom number
I was happy with the space i had. it included a whole kitchenette area and a walk-in closet. hanging all my clothes up to preserve ironing was finally possible. This made my life easier! the desk staff was friendly and helpful, offering an early check-in.
the room lacked a number, though it was connected to two queen beds. i booked a single queen bed room! plus, the cleaning lady and a male companion were quite noisy in another room early in the morning.
Rooms
9/10
the room was spacious and well-equipped. it had comfortable beds! the pillows allowed a great night's sleep, and the hotel has a pillow program. the rooms are recently renovated, and the king-size bed had a thin duvet.
Location

the location provided easy access to various points of interest. grand central was close by. subway lines were nearby making it very easy to get around. the hotel is near many restaurants to take a team.
