Great stay near Grand Central
Perfectly fine, clean hotel close to Grand Central. Good value for the money, large room (by NYC standards). Felt comfortable for a family of four in a room with two queen sized bed. The kitchenette our room had an ice maker in the fridge--which was an unexpected but nice thing to have in a hotel room. Plenty of restaurants and amenities near by for all needs.

Wonderful staff
Staff at front desk was very pleasant and had us check in early. It was my daughter’s birthday and they were very kind to upgrade our room. Wonderful spacious room with great view of the Chrysler building. We loved our stay, thank you!

Too dirty to be do expensive
Ive stayed here before and its an okay hotel. But since then the price has gone up significantly and the cleanliness is just not there. Dusty surfaces, mold in bathroom. Also the bathroom shower was just a slight dip in the floor and because the shower head woukdnt bend the shower flooded the bathroom floor everytime. Again - I would stay here if it was a good deal but its really not
