The hotel is super centrally located, just around the corner of Times Square in the heart of Manhattan. The rooms were a great size for all four of us, making it a comfortable stay. The staff was helpful, although not as friendly as expected. The location is fantastic and efficient for touring the city, but the surroundings could be better looked after. The dining experience was globally inspired but somewhat disappointing in terms of portion size for the price. The facilities were modern and efficient, offering a slick and modern look right from the entrance.

The hotel is incredibly central and modern, making it easy to explore top attractions like Central Park, Times Square, and more. The room I stayed in was spacious, with two double beds perfect for accommodating a group of four. The only downside was the slightly disappointing dining experience in terms of portion size for the price.

The hotel is perfectly located just around the corner of Times Square in the heart of Manhattan. It was able to accommodate four of us comfortably in the Deluxe King room. However, the room size was small, and having the sink outside in the bedroom area was not very convenient.
