it is located in a very quiet community and nearby are 2 subway stations that brings you to downtown manhattan in a few minutes and 1 ride to jfk.
the room (double bed) is huge by new york standards. beds and linens are so clean, size and quality for a 5-star hotel. unfortunately, we missed the complimentary breakfast for waking up too late.
what's best about hotel vetiver is its staff. the porters, front desk officers, room service can't be described merely as "friendly." they are a family! they don't only go about their individual duties promptly and attentively; what i love most about their staff is the personal touch that makes one feel at home. they start a conversation and we as guests just find ourselves immersed in such happy talk by the time we walk to our rooms, we're still laughing.
they wouldn't mind doing everything and anything to make our stay in their hotel most pleasant. one staff even volunteered to forward to my home country a package that did not come on time while we were there. i emphasize here: she volunteered without my asking! maybe she saw too much worry on my face for the late delivery but what really matters is her attentiveness in solving my problem instantly.
in my future trips to new york, no more searching is necessary. hotel vetiver is one place you'd love to stay in whenever you visit the big apple. this i have to spread around to my family, friends and colleagues who want the best value for their money while getting the service that put to shame 5-star hotels in manhattan!
