I spent three wonderful nights in the Affinia on July 27th and it certainly exceeded my expectations. When we arrived we were greeted in a very frienly manner by the front desk staff and given our room even though it was only 1 pm. When we saw the room (a one bedroom suite) we advised the front desk that we needed a larger (king) bed in the room, and they immediately changed our room, no problem. The rooms are very clean and fully stocked with all you need. Great Aveda products in bathrooms and 2 bathrooms. Showers are small but super clean and towels and linens are high quality. You can even select a pillow from the pillow menu. The location is excellent-right across from Penn Station and close to all midtown attractions but far enough from Time Square that your not too much in thick of things.
The only problem we encountered was a strange tapping on our air conditioner unit. At first we thought it came from the unit itself, but we later learned it was actually the condensation from the unit above ours dripping on ours and since it is metal it resounded (quite loudly) and bothered us quite a bit at night. Fortunately, when we reported they immediately showed up at our room and remedied the problem. We had a towel sticking out from the window sill but the problem was solved. Although they gave the impression they had never heard of this problem before, they sure seemed to know exactly what to do. My suggestion is you check it out when you get there and if you hear the sound, call them right away and avoid being bothered in the night. I will DEFINITELY stay again and recommend this hotel.
