Excellent”
Our party of 4 stayed here for a week in Nov2018. We asked for a quiet room away from the elevator and road noise and the staff were most helpful accommodating us . We also had a great view of Empire State from our window . Breakfast was great and the location was fab . We stayed in a room with 2 double beds . The room was clean and modern however was very small even for New York standards . We had 3 full size cases and there was actually no where to put them other than on top of the tiny wardrobe , set of drawers and at the door. ( The staff were more than helpful and said we could leave our empty cases with them however There wasn't enough drawer space or hanging space to unpack them all ). This was our only disappointment. We had to be super tidy and organised. The room would have been more than adequate for 2 however , 4 adults it was just way too small for a week .
This minor disappointment did not spoil our stay at this hotel and we would stay here again . 2 rooms though

Better service than Westin Times Square”
We stayed 1 night there before checking in to Westin Times Square, though the room and facilities not as good as Westin, it’s customer service level is definitely far better than Westin.
The price is pretty reasonable given it’s location and the breakfast is pretty good. Highly recommended!

Clean room but slightly small”
Great location; few blocks away from Penn Station, Grand Central, Times Sq. Walkable distance roughly 10-20min to everywhere you need as a tourist. Professional service from the staffs, they provide hot water, tea coffee at the lobby. Very useful considering a lot American hotels does not provide kettle in the room.
Improvements that I believe could do would be the size of breakfast dining area. Considering you have close to 20 floors with about 4 rooms each level, the dining area is really small with some mornings out of our 5 days stay we couldn't get seats and had to stand by tables to wait for others to finish. Extremely long wait during peak time for lifts as well because there are only 2 elevators. We had king bed room and it was quite small as compare to other American hotels. Not much soace for 2 Asians to move around. Our first visit to New York not sure if this is what the city offers generally.

The location was good (middle of Manhatton) and the staffs were good.

The wosrt thing was that the room was noisy. It was caused by elevator. It noised all the day and night time.

Worth the price”
As a room for 4, the room is a bit small. However, the price is cheaper than other hotels in the same district, so should blame it. The room and lobby is clean, and people are great. The included breakfast is served till 9:30am, which is a bit early compared to others. The breakfast is not bad at all, nothing special but totally worth the price.

The location was fantastic. Not very crowded and noisy, but it is still very near attractions! Time square is just a mere 10 minutes walk, train to Wall Street and Statue of Liberty cruise in just 20 minutes. But since we are a group of 4, we just use uber to get around! The hotel is situated in a centralised area, getting around using uber in a group is definitely value for money!

Very good”
The hotel is very good located and a plus is the breakfast, which is included in the price. It is a regular breakfast, which is ok.
However the only negative point is, that I tried to reserve a rental car and write therefore several times to the support hotline. They answered within 24h and where very friendly and helpful. But the hotel in NY did not replay on my e-mail at all, even I tried several e-mail addresses which I get from the support hotline.
Fazit: The hotel is quite good and a good value for the money but do not expect any extra services at all. If you expect this than this is the wrong address.

My room was spotless, no waiting for the elevator, hot breakfast (coffee could be better), pleasant staff, all for a reasonable price. This hotel is around the block from Han Bat, an excellent Korean restaurant, also reasonably priced. I have looked for reasonably priced hotels in NYC for years, and this is the best thus far. I am a solo traveler, and my room would be small for two. I never spend much time in the room so it suited me just fine.

Great deal!”
This hotel is perfect for a stay in NYC. The location is hard to beat - close to the main subway stations that will take you pretty much anywhere, plus it's close to Times Square and Herald Square. The room (2 queen beds for 4 people) is quite tiny, so be ready for that. If you're there for a short stay, it's perfectly fine, but if you're planning a longer stay (1 week or more), then you may have to fight for space! but if you're well organized, you shouldn't have any problems. The Breakfast is decent - cereal, pancakes/french toast, bacon/sausage, toast/bagels, muffins/cookies, oatmeal, yoghurt etc. The only trouble with the breakfast is finding a space to sit on a busy morning (the weekend). The staff is super friendly!

Great location and good value for central Manhattan. ”
Expect a small room in midtown Manhattan. It was a newer building, comfortable bed and quiet stay. Hardly heard anything. We Enjoyed the free ice water, coffee and tea in the lobby. Staff was always helpful and the free breakfast was good. We were there 5 days and only had the same hot items once. They served breakfast 7-9:30 but didn't put everything away promptly at 9:30, and there was always plenty.
Cons: Had to wait 5 min one morning to find a place to sit for breakfast. Our swipe card Was set up incorrectly, staff was apologetic and very helpful.
This is not an upscale posh hotel, don't expect 5* service but we found service was very responsive and therefore good.
Eg. I spilled a few drops of tea on the bedding and did not mention it or leave a note. and when we returned they had changed all the bedding.
