excellent stay!

easy accesshelpful staffgenerous sizenoise insulation
the location provides easy access to transportation. the hotel staff proved helpful and friendly. the room was generous in size and clean, a good experience for us. my kids loved the pool at the end of a long day of sightseeing.
the noise from other rooms disturbed me. the rooms are not well insulated to prevent noise from corridors. i could hear noise from elevators and neighboring rooms clearly.

Solid Stay Near Union Square

The location proved very convenient. I could walk to many shops. My room had comfortable chairs and a small table. The fast elevators were efficient.
I noticed some street noise. It might bother light sleepers.

a satisfactory stay downtown

convenient locationhelpful staffhistoric feelunattractive courtyarddated roomwindow cleanliness
the location was really convenient for accessing many stores and restaurants. the front desk staff, particularly joyce, was helpful (always a plus!). the building had an older, historic feel.
My room faced an unattractive interior courtyard. the room seemed dated overall. the window cleanliness was also subpar. It hindered any potential view.
