Great for Family NYC Visit
This hotel was perfect for our family of 5. The 2 queen beds with a sofa bed was an ideal set up, and the included breakfast was wonderful. Great location to all the spots we wanted to see. Will definitely be back!

An absolute gem in the heart of Times Square!
The check-in process was easy. The location can’t be beat. The room was immaculate, clean, modern and well appointed - even including complimentary bottled water which is rare these days but SO appreciated!! The front desk picked up immediately and answered a question I had when I called down. Great view from my window. Super impressed with this hotel!!
