This hotel exceeded expectations! It offers great value for money in New York, and has great access to main Subway lines into the heart of the city. Impeccably clean throughout, comfortable room, and above average breakfast. A stylish building with a rich history. Saw a good mix of international guests during my stay. Yes, it's in the Bronx, so of course it has Bronx situations going on around it. Don't be alarmed! Basic common sense and you'll be fine, Highly recommended - will be my go-to for stays in NYC going forward.
