We had a family emergency that required us to book several rooms on short notice for folks coming from all over the country. I did a search for hotels near where our major event was being held and Affinia Manhattan came up as the closest, least expensive option. It helped that it had several different room configurations to choose from. It further helped that the hotel is only 1 block from Penn station --- very handy for folks arriving from Newark who took the train into the city.
Everyone in our party was pleased with the hotel & its amenties -- especially the rooms with kitchenettes -- very handy for folks with little kids. I liked the spacious "deluxe queen" -- plenty of space to sit, relax, and move around. Bedding was very comfortable. Our bathroom was TEENY, eveny by NYC standards. The shower was only 2 1/2 feet wide. But it worked!
Concierge was very helpful with all our questions and arranged a dinner at the hotel restaurant for 17 people in the private room. Extra bonus: 20% discount at the restaurant -- which was quite good -- with your room key.
