Great staff
I found the hotel clean and loved the location. I could walk to Central Park in one direction and Greenwich Village in the other. What I was most impressed with however was the great front desk staff. They were always friendly and helpful. Great stay.

Great from beginning to end. The front staff were so friendly and accommodating with early check-in. Absolutely enjoyed every bit. Rooms are a bit on the smaller side but have everything you’d need. Rooms were clean and cleaning staff were very attentive to everyone’s needs.

Decent for the price but could be better
Reasonably priced, safe and walkable location. Room was pretty small but unsurprising in New York. We didn’t find the bed and pillows too comfortable. Room was fairly clean, but we couldn’t be sure if the towels were very clean or not. Would probably try another place next time
