DoubleTree by Hilton New York Downtown
Seven days stay, the location is great. Room was cleaned eve day which was great. But there are some savings that I do not understand: The hotel does not provide the typical, two bottles of water per room per nigh. That's the reason I do not give a 5. That's so cheap why they bother?
