The hotel is conveniently located near Grand Central station. The room had wooden floors and a spacious bathroom. I liked that the shower was good.

My room faced an inner courtyard so it was dark all day. I did not like that the windows looked directly at a wall. I also found the sink stopper to be faulty.

The hotel location was great near Grand Central. The room was spacious enough (i had a double room with king de luxe). The bed was so comfortable. I slept like a baby.

The room was very small and dark. Natural light was scarce because it faced another building. Housekeeping was a letdown, as the room was not properly cleaned one morning.

i appreciated the swift delivery of a coffee maker to my room after i requested it. the staff brought it almost immediately. the hotel provided great recommendations for nearby places to have breakfast and brunch. i also found the location very convenient, its close proximity to grand central station proved valuable.

the walls felt thin, i could hear every conversation and noise from the adjacent room. this lack of soundproofing greatly impacted my ability to sleep soundly. it was disruptive at times.

The room heat went up to 24 degrees Celsius even when the AC was set to 15 degrees. I was very uncomfortable. The room seemed really small. It seemed suited for a single person and not a couple.
