8/10 Good
"This hotel is very well located. Lincoln Center is right across the street. The NYC subway is a block away and so is Central Park. Many good restaurants within walking distance. Room was a good size with high ceilings and space for luggage. Clean. Only downfall was our bathroom which was tired and worn. The switch for handheld sprayer and towel hook were placed up high and hard to reach. An update to the bathroom would be awesome. But the staff! They are all awesome. Helpful and cheerful with great hospitality. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a lovely visit."

"Needed a last minute stay the cost was reasonable for close to time square. Room are cool small but honestly enough. My only thing is there was not a little near the shower so it was dark but otherwise clean and located centrally to everything . Check in and out was simple. Don’t get to try bar but it looked nice"

"タイムズスケア周辺で立地も良く素晴らしいホテルでした。滞在した時期がファッションウィークのためエレベーターが大変混雑していて大変でした。それ以外は、エントランスロビーをおしゃれですし、夜にはアーティストの方が弾き語りをしていて、とても良い雰囲気でした。"

8/10 Good
"Upon arrival we attempted to check in via the self service kiosk. Our room was not ready at 7:30pm, so we went to the service desk. The gentleman who assisted us was not super friendly, just seemed irritated with having to be at work. The elevator situation is horrible, there are three elevators with one operating at any time. We have to stand in a line to take it. Once in our room, it was a beautiful view. The room was okay, not the best cleaning. Candy on the floor and some chips in the paint on most furnishings. The temperature was very nice however. The bathroom lightbulb did not work. It’s a decent place however for the price not so much!"
