This Hotel was very good. Very close to the subway and the NYC ferry on the east river. The room was spotless. We had a nice view of the 59 st bridge. Found the staff very helpful overall. The breakfast was very good and could help yourself to as much as you wanted. I would recommend staying here.

Windows were not at all sound proof. We were on the 3rd floor and could hear outside activity as if the window was open.
Having to upload a photo of drivers license and input credit card information prior to checking in was annoying and extra work. I have never had to do this at any hotel Ive ever stayed in.

Would not return
Uncomfortable beds, furniture falling apart, slow Wifi, unfinished ceilings, bad smell from cleaning products, low quality soaps and shampoos, mediocre breakfast. I'd say you get what you pay for but this place is way overpriced.

Clean and updated room and friendly staff!
Staffing starting with the front desk, to the people who took care of the kitchen, and to the people who cleaned the rooms... Absolutely friendly and exceptional! They were kind and very courteous. The room was incredibly clean and updated. The breakfast was very good. The only reason I did not give my rating a five stars is because the mattress was very hard and uncomfortable. Otherwise for everything else five stars!

Good service
The front desk staff was very helpful. Although it is a low building, we were able to enjoy the night view of Manhattan, including the top of the Empire State Building. Be careful as breakfast can be very crowded depending on the time of day. Even though accommodation costs in New York are rising, the price is about 1.5 times what we would expect.

Great value
Great hotel for the price. Rooftop offered great views of the city. Complimentary breakfast saved us a lot of time and money. Easy 15 minute commute to Manhattan. No complaints!

Not Happy
The WiFi did not work. The front desk said they would check and call me back. They didn’t. The next time I called front desk, they said that the problem was in the area and they couldn’t do anything about it. Why didn’t the hotel contact me to let me know before I arrived? Why didn’t they offer to reduce my bill or give me a discount on my next stay? The furniture and baseboards in the room were scuffed. The remote didn’t work. The stand-alone coat rack wobbled back and forth.

It was super convenient to the train. Finding a hotel in nyc that comes with a free hot breakfast is rare and amazing! The rooms were clean and staff friendly and helpful. My only minor complaint was that the bed was not that comfortable. Luckily i was so tired from all the nyc walking every day that i still slept well.
