I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, with plenty of restaurants and shopping within walking distance. The hotel staff, especially the maids, were incredibly friendly and helpful. The rooms were spacious and spotlessly clean. I loved that the hotel offered discounted parking right next door, and it was so convenient to have the Columbus Circle subway station just a short walk away. Being close to the subway made it easy to explore this city and visit attractions like Central Park.
Nothing that I didn't like.
I had an incredible stay at this hotel! The location was excellent, with easy access to everything and anything in the city. Public transportation, including buses and subways, was just a short walk away, making it convenient to explore this city. The hotel was surrounded by lots of nice restaurants and pubs, providing plenty of dining options. The staff was incredibly nice and helpful, always going above and beyond to assist me. They even helped me with a package that arrived after I had left. Additionally, the hotel facilities were top-notch, and the room was larger than the average NYC standard. Cleanliness was impeccable, and the shower had strong water pressure. I also enjoyed the great views of the city from my room.
Everything was fantastic.
The location was ideal, just a stone's throw away from Times Square and conveniently close to the subway, Central Park, and Broadway. Check-in and check-out were a breeze, and the staff was accommodating and friendly. The hotel provided great drinks at reasonable prices and even quickly fulfilled my request for a small refrigerator for a nominal fee. The water pressure in the room was excellent, ensuring plenty of hot water for a refreshing shower.
Cannot find any fault.
