Perfect location and wonderfully comfortable room
This was possibly one of the nicest and most comfortable hotels I've ever stayed at in NYC. A great room - large in size compared to most NYC hotels. Location was amazing for my needs. Staff were really helpful and just super nice. I'd stay here in a heartbeat again - actually, I've already booked my next stay.

Great location and sti
Awesome staff. Very friendly and helpful. Excellent location in the middle of Manhattan. Good value. Only issue is room size. Extremely small and difficult to get comfortable in.

Small but mighty
The rooms are very small. They gave us a luggage stand that when opened could barely squeeze around bed. Chair at the desk prevented you opening the closet. Bathroom was nice…..good shower. No views!!! The location was fine…..found 2 good eateries close by and very good. If you like Korean food you are right in the middle of KoreaTown. Good central location. Cafe in the lobby had a few good breakfast choices and the hotel paid for the coffee and tea.

Excellent but noisy
We had a room on the 1st floor, right above the street and a very active restaurant. The room was excellent but the noise intolerable. The room has absolutely no noise insulation- not for noise coming from the street nor from the other rooms.
