8/10 Good
"The staff is first rate and the location is very convenient to subways, shopping, dining, and theatres. However, be advised: Mini fridge is an extra $40/day! Also, not all the floors have an ice machine and not all the floors that are supposed to have an ice machine actually have one. To add to the challenge, ice buckets are not in the room and need to be requested. The upside is you get to meet other frustrated guests looking for ice. For two days, floors 1-15 only had one working elevator that added long waits and frustration."

"The staff downstairs and at the front desk could certainly be more friendly and welcoming the person at the front desk was fairly abrupt and got frustrated when my husband asked a couple questions. There was one really shining star in the little coffee shop / next shop across from the check-in desk. He was very friendly outgoing helped us figure out how to use our room credit and basically went out of his way to help us out he was The Shining Star of the visit. Our room at the hotel was very nice clean and comfortable. My only complaint was that the toilet paper holder is falling off of the wall which was very inconvenient as the toilet paper fell in the trash every time you tried to pull some off the roll and there was no shampoo in the holder in the shower when we arrived I had to ask. Everything else went smoothly and we enjoyed our stay very much. I would for sure stay here again if we ever have need to visit Times Square New York again."

"Came here for Harry Styles and it was GREAT! The room is small, but it makes sense since its New York. The workers were all amazing and super helpful, our shower wouldnt drain and a sweet lady came in and vacuumed the water out of our tub at 3 AM!!!! The receptionists also gave some great recommendations for us to visit around the city. If you are in your 20's and going on a fun trip I definitely recommend this hotel. Great ambiance, wifi was a bit spotty, but the walls were thick enough to drown on the city noise and the people in other rooms. Location of the hotel is also very convenient everything is pretty much walking distance, if not the subway is not too far."
