amazing location free water unbearable noise broken toilet
The location was amazing. It was right next to Empire State Building. Free water in the room were great. A free to use fridge was good.
The noise was unbearable. There was almost no sound proofing. The toilet were broken upon arrival. I think it was not worth the amount I paid.
