Stayed here last week for work. Great location, close to Grand Central, decent rates. They have a cool rooftop bar, but the food menu is weak up there so don't expect gourmet appetizers while you drink! Rooms are basic and seem slightly outdated, but it was fine. Bathroom has a pedistal sink, which I find it hard to get ready around. No place to rest hair dyer, curling iron, make-up, etc. Shower has a curtain, which always seems a little skeevy to me. They tried to double charge me for internet because I logged on from 2 laptops. First, I think it's a total rip off when hotels even charge $14.95 a day for internet, so when they tried to charge me double because it was their "rules" I was just about over this place (but then again, it is NY and they get you for everything!). It was only me in the room and it seems that internet should be charged to the room per 24 hour period, not how many computers are used. In the end they took off the extra charge. Overall, this place is just okay. I would probably stay here again because it's super close to my NY office and fits the budget but it's not my favorite NY hotel!
