Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel
The room was clean and the staff friendly. The only challenge was the busy elevator. We had to wait over 5 minutes each time to get an elevator going up or down.

Paramount Times Square – A Generator Hotel
Everything was great!! Only thing, if you’re in the higher levels, the toilet water pressure isn’t that great, so I would use the lobby rest room for #2, just a heads up.

Hotel St. James
The room was OK, definitely not the room on the picture. Air conditioner needs cleaning. I’m assuming that we get the mildew moldy odor. Other than that as well kept nice and clean. Would stay there again.
