I was mildly apprehensive about the quality of the hotel before arriving. A hotel in Times Square for such a low rate!?!? My fears quickly disappeared! The location was perfect! The “tkts” booth was right outside the front door. My 80-year old (and very fit!) mom could walk easily to multiple theatres, as well as take 7th Avenue down to Central Park. I was surprised by the cleanliness of the room--and I'm quite picky. The suite consisted of a bedroom, bath and separate sitting area with a couch that made into a bed--perfect for our family of four (two of whom are teenaegers). They placed my mom in an adjoining room, even though we hadn't made our reservations together. The bell staff assisted my mom (who stayed on an extra day) in arranging travel to the airport. Hot chocolate chip cookies are available daily at the front desk! : ) I plan to stay here every time we visit NYC! Our trip was in January, and Times Square wasn't too crowded. If you don't like crowds, they might be overwhelming in mid-summer. You do have to pay for internet in your room but it’s free in the lobby.
