superb location cocktail room cleaning issue loud noise

The location was superb! It was close to many subway stations, so getting around was wonderfully easy. The rooftop bar provided fabulous views, and the cocktail room was a bonus.

The room was only cleaned once , which I found surprising. I also noticed the noise from the rooftop bar. It was quite loud even on my floor, even with ear plugs.

Handy theater visit

excellent location responsive staff quiet room easy access

The location was excellent, near many theaters. The staff was responsive, providing great communication. Rooms are standard size, but very quiet compared to others i have stayed in. I found the proximity to Times Square and Broadway theaters excellent. It made attending shows very easy.

I noticed only minor issue, there was limited hanging space for my clothes.
