Impeccably clean hotel, nice and warm even at the coldest days of winter, very comfortable bed. Even if not the fanciest hotel, everything just works perfectly and the entire hotel is kept to a great condition.
The room was very clean, loved the bathroom, especially the shower. No issues at all with toiletry supplies plus the room staff were very courteous and helpful.
Room was very clean, staff work very hard. Bed was super comfortable and the room was very warm. Breakfast was very nice, food was fresh. Enjoyed our stay, Would stay again!

Hotel very clean, excellent daily room service, good breakfast, professional and friendly staff, parking onsite for a fair price and the best train station one block away.
I stayed for 2 days and most of that time I was out of the room visiting family and exploring the area, so not sure about gym and laundry, etc. I liked the complimentary breakfast and the rooms, as well as the friendly staff. My one gripe is the absence of a coffee machine in the room. There is a fridge but no coffee machine.
Stayed during the last weekend of Feb 2026.
Staff kept the property very clean and organized. My room was spotless and updated. Good water pressure and slept on a very comfortable king sized mattress.
Breakfast is included with your stay which is an actual breakfast (eggs, french toast or pancakes, sausage or bacon) served daily plus other items.
I'd stay with them again in a heartbeat. Only a 15 min walk/ subway ride to get to Columbus Circle!!1
Overall, it was a very nice hotel with many conveniences. First, it’s very close to the subway, making access to Manhattan very easy and convenient. The complimentary breakfast was a great way to start each day; breakfast consisted of eggs, potatoes, bagels, fruit, juice, coffee and more. The employees were friendly, helpful, and especially organised in the kitchen. The room was ok, it was clean, it had a fridge, safe, tv, and a clean spacious bathroom. Negatives were the loud/noisy HVAC through the night and the limited hangars for hanging my clothes. The price paid was very reasonable so overall it was a very good stay and I recommend this hotel.
Premium value hotel for a fair price.
Location is convenient to the subway system. Nice staff. Easy check in. Function was the key as I did not need to have an expensive room for my quick stay.
Location was near the subway. Parking was available over the weekend on the street and in the lot. Strong chemical odor in the room from cleaning. Breakfast was fine, staff was friendly. Bottom line- Basic clean hotel with a decent breakfast.
Clean, comfortable room. Parking lot on the premises.

The location is great customer service is great and the complimentary breakfast was great! The room was clean and well appointed with a mini fridge and safe! Unfortunately the bed was beyond firm and the heater was so loud when it kicked on every 20 mins or so it woke me up.
