"This is a nice place to stay in midtown Manhattan. It’s convenient to Broadway and Central Park. The rooms are well appointed with both a fridge and a microwave. The beds and linens are comfortable, and the staff is friendly and welcoming, especially the bellhops. The elevators can be a bit slow during peak times, but they were not terrible. Overall it’s a pretty good value."
