I have just returned from a 5 night stay at the Washington Jefferson hotel. We stayed in a twin room, which was fine for us. I would agree with other reviewers that the rooms are a bit on the small side but, in a city like New York, you don't spend much time in the room!! Storage space was limited but i'm not sure we would have unpacked our cases if there had been more. The free wifi was really useful to research places that we wanted to visit, check opening times and prices. The staff were very helpful, storing our bags when we arrived as our room wasn't quite ready and after we had checked out so that we could enjoy some more time exploring without lugging our suitcases behind us. The room was clean, tidy and well maintained. The iPod dock was an added bonus too! If we had one complaint about the room it was the lack of a mirror! There were two in the bathroom but, when two people are getting ready it was a bit of a pain having to wait for the other to finish - a very minor thing though!!
The location is excellent, the subway is just 1 block away and this has a direct link to the Airtrain to JFK saving us paying out for a taxi to and from the airport. We could be in Central Park or Times Sqaure in 5 minutes on foot and there were plenty of restaurants etc just steps from the front door.
I would have no reservations about booking or recommending this hotel to anyone looking for somewhere to simply rest their weary head and feet during a break in the Big Apple!
