The location (although on 58th st, not actually columbus circle - rather confusing at first) would be extremely difficult to beat here. The air con was amazing, but essential and too noisy to have on at night, which meant the room was pretty stuffy by the morning (no means of opening the window). No view whatsoever, but wouldn't have expected a view of central perk with the prices we were paying!
After reading about how small rooms tend to be in NY, we opted for a deluxe queen room (35), which was completely adequate for us. The quality of the bedding was great for a chain hotel and the shower was lovely and powerful. The ipod dock was unplugged and didnt seem to work.
Aside from the location, do not expect any freebies at 6 columbus. We have spent 3 weeks in the USA so far and this is the first place to charge us 15 dollars a day for WIFI. The room is stacked with drinks and snacks, but are ridiculously priced.
Overall, I would rather pay a quarter of the price to stay in the other B&B we stayed in NY in Chelsea - free wifi, tea and coffee go a long way (and surely wouldnt cost the company that much...)
