6/10 Good

Nice, but could be better

Room was very nice and clean. Location great. Got a few messages about upgrading room, which I ended up doing because the option included what was supposed to be with Street View, but we weren't given one which was the whole reason for taking the upgrade. Also was weird having to pay for a refrigerator if we wanted one, and not sure what kind of hotel has an ice machine and no ice buckets, having to use a garage bag for ice. For the price of the room, feel like a fridge and an ice bucket is a small accommodation, but not these days I guess... Would stay again if price better and nothing else available since the room was nice. Staying in same area again in a few weeks, but trying elsewhere.

Not a resort, better hotel rooms nearby for less

Not a resort, not even a lobby. Rooms squeezed into an alley. Don't open the curtains. Thermostat on the wall is fake. Don't pay the resort fees.

Not so great

This was our second stay at the Aura, and I'm not sure if we'll be back. The air conditioning was very loud and the bathroom and entry smelled very strongly of mildew. i would have asked for a different room. but we didn't get into the room until late at night.

8/10 Very good

Cozy but was a fine stay

Would have liked a slightly longer blanket but the ones we had were fine! There was a crusty sock under one of the mattresses when we got there. We threw it out. Otherwise the room was fine, it was small but given the location that’s what we expected. We used it to sleep and it was effective for that! Would stay again, fantastic central location (which does mean some city noise if that matters to you)

In the heart of times square

Super convenient to Times Square, Rockefeller Center, and Radio City Music Hall. Lots of great restaurants, shopping, and theatres in easy walking distance. Hotel staff were all welcoming. Great price. Very comfortable bed and full bath/shower. Would definitely stay again.
