Just had a 5 night stay here with my son. The staff were so friendly, especially the door staff. The hotel itself is definitely value for money especially given how much time we actually spent there during our trip. Room service and clean towels every day and a cool lounge area on the first floor, great for some quiet time. Smile to go cafe on the ground floor was our go to for breakfast, great service and food at reasonable prices.

Interesting, unique hotel in a great location, good and helpful staff, rooms are clean but generally small, which is not unusual for NYC hotels--convenient on-site restaurant, bar and coffee shop, plus a rooftop bar with beautiful views.
