8.4/10 Very Good! (46 reviews)

Very very happy with our stay here! There was not a fan or a TV but obviously there isn’t much time for TV when you’re exploring the city! Also close to a subway station.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (3,348 reviews)

The room was on the smaller end but the place was clean. Staff was kind and helpful. The price and extra charges of the hotel was expensive for the level of service received. Really you are playing for the location. Can see time square depending on the room booked. It was a great location close to time square. Due to Christmas holiday season, the room price was inflated. Due to this reason, I would not book again. But had a good one night stay.
