This was a great place to stay for business travel. I had a suite on the tenth floor that seemed as large as a studio apartment! Having a kitchenette was a real treat. I agree with other reviewers that the staff is superb -- very friendly. The lobby is gorgeous. The location across from Penn Station is ideal. Aveda products in the bathroom were a nice touch. The bed was comfortable. However, despite all those nice touches I hardly slept because of the noise. Even on the tenth floor, the traffic noises were very audible. The windows seemed "thin" -- not only because of the noise, but also because of the drafts. I had the heat blasting out but slept under bedspreads from both beds. One of the windowshades didn't work. The room was $309 a night -- understandable for the amount of space and the location, I suppose, but I wouldn't pay that price personally as a leisure traveler. I'd stay there again for business, but as a leisure traveler, I'd definitely try to find a lower price or some online deal -- nice as is the Affinia is, I'm not sure it's quite up to the standards of that price range yet.
