We stayd in Hotel 91 for 4 nights after staying midtown Grand Hyatt for 3 nights. I liked both hotels and I am happy that I had an opportunity to stay in two such different neighbourhoods. Next time I will propably stay somewhere in downtown. Midtown will be option only if I get a great deal in 4 star hotel.
Hotel 91 is conveniently located if you want have a dinner in Little Italy or drinks in the East Village. It is near to two subway stops and a short taxi drive to lot of interesting areas. We took a bus to Union square and subway to Brooklyn and walked across the Brooklyn Bridge.
Taxi is difficult to get from this hotel but you can ask the staff call you a car. We ordered a car in advance to the airport and the price was 45 $ and it was told us in advance.
The surroundings was exactly as described in other reviews: fishmarkets and a huge crowds except in the evening. We enjoyed it and I would definitely stay here again. We liked the hotel and the neighborhood, There isn't good coffee shops near by, we did not mind: we got our cappuccinos and espressos in Little Italy. You get instant coffee and tea from the hotel and something to eat from the 3 bakeries next door and you will get great lunch in chinatown.
We had a double queen room for two and it was spacious for our needs. Room was new and matresses were good. New linen was nice although it wasn't changed during our 4 night stay. Everything was clean. Bathroom was chic and towels were changed every day. Bathroom was larger than we had in Grand Hyatt. With current prices I was satisfied what I got.
