after a hectic day of ny tourism, it was great to come back to the calm and comfort of the hotel to rejuvenate for the nightlife. location was FABOLOUS, service was nice, room was well done (small but with high ceilings and very nice bathroom). overall, LOVED IT.

Pros: location, great ambience, good service

This place is seriously cool even for NYC. Service was always nice and very agreeable. The outdoor rooftop garden is a wonderful escape. Rooms are small, but aren't most in the city? Enjoyed it and will return.

Pros: rooftop garden, amenities, service/staff

Cons: , cramped rooms
