The hotel is conveniently located just below Central Park and a few blocks from Times Square, offering a bustling yet not overwhelming setting. The rooms, albeit shared with an adjacent hotel, were on the pricier side but plagued by noisy air conditioning units. The service, especially with prompt email responses and helpful concierge staff, was commendable, with attentive Happy Hour service. Dining options were top-notch, going beyond the usual continental fare, although high prices were a common occurrence even in comparable 5-star establishments.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was a good size for New York, and the bed was super comfortable. However, I was not pleased with the hidden fees that made the total cost higher than expected. The location was excellent, near Central Park and Times Square, though there were some cleanliness issues to be addressed. The dining experience was pleasant, especially the evening indulgence hour, but there is room for improvement. Overall, a nice stay with a few hiccups.

The hotel offers a mix of pros and cons. The rooms are a bit small but very clean and comfortable, with the added bonus of coffee available at all times. The bathroom, however, is on the smaller side. The service is top-notch, with helpful and laid-back staff who go above and beyond to assist guests. The location is exceptional, within walking distance of major attractions, although some updates to the air conditioning system are needed. The dining experience is enjoyable, especially the indulgence hour in the evening, but morning options could be enhanced. Overall, a serviceable choice with room for improvement.
