I had a disappointing experience at this hotel. The rooms were tiny, dirty, and even the second room had issues like black mold. The windows were minimal, and the overall cleanliness was below standard. The location is the only redeeming quality, as it's close to Times Square and the subway. I wouldn't recommend staying here if cleanliness and room quality are important to you.

The hotel is wonderfully located between Broadway and 8th Avenue, just steps away from Times Square, making it convenient for exploring the city. The room, although on the smaller side, was sufficient for me and my daughter, but it tended to stay hot despite efforts to cool it down. The service was exceptional from the moment I arrived until the staff helped me with my departure arrangements.

The hotel room was incredibly small and poorly fitted out, making it challenging to maneuver around or have enough space for personal belongings. The bar area had a dark ambiance, which didn't add to the appeal of the hotel.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though small, had pretty chandeliers and a functional bathroom with big mirrors, but the lack of wardrobe space was inconvenient. The service was friendly and accommodating, but some staff members seemed unknowledgeable. The location was perfect for exploring NYC, close to Times Square and major attractions, but unexpected fees were a downside. The dining options were basic, and the facilities were satisfactory.

My stay at the hotel was overall fine for our 4-day trip. The rooms were lovely, spotlessly clean, with free tea and coffee available downstairs 24 hours a day and snacks between 4 pm and 6 pm. However, my room was extremely small, even for a 'standard double room,' and being right against the window on a street meant constant noise from fire trucks and people yelling at all hours.

The hotel offers a mix of great and not-so-great features. The rooms were clean and comfortable, although a bit tight in space at times. The service ranged from very friendly to a bit inconsistent.

Upon check-in, the room had no windows making it quite dark, but I was impressed by how quiet and clean it was. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the bedding, shower accessories, including bathrobes, were wonderful. The service was exceptional throughout my stay, from the moment I arrived until they helped me into my cab to head to the airport. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the theater district, close to Times Square, theaters, subways, and a variety of great restaurants. The dining experience was a bit off, with limited options at a higher price, but the smoked salmon bagels were quite good. Overall, a hotel with great rooms and service, exceptional location, but dining could be improved.
