We stayed one night at the Edison while we were in town for a taping of a television show. I wanted a place that was near the action, didn't cost a whole lot and had private bathrooms (high standards, right?)
We were pleasantly surprised by the Edison. Our room was on the 9th floor and was very nicely furnished. It says it's in art deco style, which means that it's actually been decorated in that style or it hasn't been touched for many decades. Luckily for us, it was the former.
The rooms are small, the bathrooms smaller (and much like the bathroom in the house where I grew up, right down to the brown tile and the metal medicine cabinet). But the rooms are clean and nice looking.
We had a view into the room across from us, so we just pulled the curtains closed. Overall, a good bargain for New York.
What was NOT a good bargain were our drinks at the Rum House - two vodka and sprites cost $20 with tip.
