The staff were welcoming and helpful with any questions I had. The rooms were clean and there was a window that you could open for some fresh air. The rooms are on the smaller side, but that’s something that comes with the affordable price and good value of the hotel. The hotel is a short walk from Grand Central and the subway, which was very convenient. I appreciated the transparency on what I was paying and would totally stay here again.
