Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel
The room was a bit too noisy. We can hear the noises coming from the streets. We got a issue with the bathroom (bathtub and toilet clogged). We had to call the reception and they sent someone right away to fix the problem. We appreciate. Everything else was good.

I love the old art deco authenticity of this hotel, and the view is spectacular. The tick tock diner is so convenient and delish. Fabulous!

PUBLIC, an Ian Schrager hotel
Staff are nice but I didn’t get my hotels.com F&B credit and the water dispenser on my floor was broken meaning I had to go up and down each time I needed to get water.
