The dining options focus on local fruits and cheaper alternatives, providing a taste of the area without breaking the bank. Overall, a good value for money stay with easy access to city attractions.

On the downside, the price for some services like dry cleaning and laundry was a bit high.

The hotel is in a prime location, super close to everything and surrounded by many restaurants. The rooms are cozy and clean, but those facing the inner courtyard or air shaft may lack natural light.

The dining options are varied, with some cheaper choices available. The facilities are modern and convenient, offering everything one might need for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is located in the heart of NYC, just around the corner from the Empire State Building in a very good area.
