My teenaged son and I stayed at the Milburn for an absolutely perfect visit. All of the compliments in previous reviews are accurate. We had a twin room (the smallest, I assume), but the room had more floor space and more furniture than a 4* hotel in Daytona Beach, where I recently stayed on a business trip. One plus not often found in hotels was an overhead light fixture, so that you don't have to crouch under a small lamp to read!
Self-service laundry is available after 5 p.m., and a hotel employee doing sheets in the laundry room assured us that we could go to eat while the machine was running and not need to worry.
Our room was directly across from the elevators, but we heard not a peep from hall traffic during the entire week. We were away from all street noise too.
Even the smallest rooms have a kitchenette. In addition to the nearby Fairway Market mentioned in a previous post, the amazing Zabars is a few blocks north. For diners who like Mediterranean food, Niko's is reasonably priced and just across the street. The hotel has discount coupons for some neighborhood restaurants. Some of these deliver to the hotel though we didn't use this service.
The Milburn will be my first choice for any future NYC visits.
