Room was incredibly clean and quiet for being as close to Times Square as it is. Only small issue I had was length of time getting car when needed. They ask you to call 45 minutes in advance, which I did, and it took an hour and a half to arrive.

Check-in was friendly with a courtesy upgrade to a higher floor. The rooms are small but extremely well appointed with hidden LED lighting, a spa-like shower experience including premium shampoo, conditioner and body wash and a drawer-style fridge. I will be back!

All 2 bed rooms are double beds not queens like Expedia advertised. Rooms are also much smaller than they appear. Also no views as also advertised. Cannot get a glass wine glass when you order wine from the bar to take to your room. Can only get glasses when ordering from room service. Not ideal
