"First time visiting this hotel. Little weekend getaway with my 3 daughters. The location is excellent, steps away from Times Square. The room was clean despite the double beds being quite small for 2 people. The staff at front desk was friendly and efficient. They come promptly to clean the rooms in the morning so be sure to put your do not disturb if you don’t want the room cleaned early. Would definitely stay again!!"
