stayed here for a conference taking place down the street so picked it for convenience. Rooms as I understand it are small in NYC - was upgraded to the one above cozy i think (called wonderful?) upon check-in and room size was fine for me although I cant imagine what kind of shoe box i would have had if not 'upgraded'! A/C is quite loud but you get used to it and i didnt spend much time in my 'Cozy' room anyway. Room a little worn but nothing to really cause concern as was clean. No bath tub if you want one (I prefer showers anyway). Great supply of Body products each day - not topped up but new individual products given. Not sure about the breakfast as ate at the conference. Lounge bar area is where you pickup free wifi but expectation to purchase a drink or two. Otherwise pay about $15 for the in-room wifi per day. Bar next door always seemed to be buzzing each evening. Staff are polite, helpful, especially the concierge lady who recommended a french restaurant about 10mins walk from the hotel - Matisse (? cant quite remember) which was pleasant. If you're looking for a place to crash and a good location (subway very close, grand central station down the road) - this is fine but can be more expensive than other hotels yet not as brilliant as the price tag may suggest.
