The hotel's location is excellent, just a moment's walk from Grand Central Station, making it convenient for exploring. The rooms were disappointing, very close together and strongly smelling of smoke. Despite the polite service, there were issues with executing basic requests like wake-up calls. The dining experience was tasty, with a delicious steak, but lacking in breakfast options. The facilities were standard.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The location was amazing, just a short walk from Grand Central Station, making it easy to get around. The rooms, although spacious enough, were extremely dark due to the need to keep the curtains closed for warmth during winter. The service was helpful and friendly, and I appreciated the staff's personalized attention. The dining experience was a mix of hits and misses, with delicious options alongside some disappointing aspects. Overall, a decent choice for a stay in Manhattan.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were incredibly spacious, which was a major plus for my stay with my two daughters. However, they lacked natural daylight due to small windows and were in rough condition overall with worn-out furniture and stained marble. Despite the shortcomings, it was one of the largest rooms I have ever stayed in NYC.

The hotel is perfectly located for exploring both lower and upper Manhattan, offering a convenient base for visiting attractions. The rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the service, especially from staff like Jasmine, Christian, and the housekeeper, is exceptionally helpful and friendly. The dining experience was delicious, though not buffet-style but à la carte. The location is ideal for easy access to Bryant Park, Times Square, and Broadway, making it a superb choice for travelers wanting a central mid-town location.
