We chose this hotel because its one of the few that can accomodate 5 in one room without paying a fortune. We stayed in a one bedroom suite which for hotels was huge. The lounge is very spacious especially if you have children which was great as we stayed here for christmas. The bathroom is small, basic and dated for the size of the room so dont expect modern facilities. There is a small kitchenette area that has a fridge, microwave and coffee perculator, no kettle! Both the lounge and bedroom have big flat screen TV's with cable TV so there are plenty of channels if you are stuck in as we were with the blizzards. Our room had 2 double beds and a large sofa bed that easily sleeps 2 however, not receomended for adults as it is so uncomfortable, the matress springs poke through so if your haevy you feel everyone of them, beleive me i tried it. The double beds are a standard size, hard matress's and foam pillows but comfortable. Rooms also have iron and irioning board, and WiFI which you pay for.
Both rooms have air conditioning, the type that hang out of the window, which is how you get the road noise.
Road Noise!!
if you have a street facing room you will hear alot of road noise, every truck, bus and car that goes by and im not exagerating. We were on the 10th Floor out of 17 Floors, so if your a light sleeper you may want to look on.
Breakfast.
For 6 dolllars each the hotel provides breakfast on the 3rd floor for 6 dollars but dont expect too much. Theres 4 types ofcereal, assortment of danish, doughnuts and crossiants, toast and waffles a mixture of juices and some fruit. All of which is served on paper plates and plastic knives and forks. We had 3 young children so this didnt matter as most of their breakfast is wasted anyway.
Room Service
Not supplied by the hotel but by local restaraunts, there are menus in the room so you can order through the hotel. Plenty of good stores close by though, cash machines 2 mins away as well as chemists you really are close to everything.
The location is excellent depending on what you want to do, 5 mins to 5th Av and 10 mins to Abercrombie, 10 mins to Cantral Park etc etc
For the money it was perfect you just need to remember that, if your looking for more of a hotel experiance then keep looking and chose a 4 star hotel like The Warwick where i usually stay on business.
