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.

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.
