Great location on Central Park adjacent to Russian Tea Room. Easy access to Subway, taxis, 5th Ave, Park Ave, Fashion Ave, and a Duane Reade on the corner.
Rooms are spacious for NYC standards. This hotel makes great use of under the bed drawer storage. Another pro is the luxury toiletries - Peter Thomas Roth. Rooms were clean, with no signs of bed bugs, spacious bathroom, and a safe large enough for an 11-inch laptop (and probably also a 13-inch...there was extra room). The mini-muffins and scones in the lobby for breakfast are great to pop in your mouth before you start your NYC adventure. Wi-fi was included with my hotel rate and it was fast and functioning (not always the case in hotels!). iPod/iPhone docking station by the bed as well.
Cons: It tends to function mostly as a time share property so sales pitches are common. In addition, there are no studio rooms with balconies. And, FYI, a Studio Plus room is the same as a Studio room. Hmmmph. No restaurant which means no room service available.
