We stayed 8 nights - note room is cleaned only after the 7th night, but change of towels optional, additional amenities etc. The kitchen enables basic cooking and we used it often for oatmeal, pasta and toast. The location is convenient, near Port Authority and Times Square, and many other hotels nearby. Breakfast if included is by Butler, an outsourced service, offering breakfast including a drink (we always took OJ) and either a sandwich with an omelet or pancakes. After 5 days we kind of got tired of this menu....

We arrived around 3:00. Got checked in efficiently. Paid for valet parking. $65 + tax daily (tax = 11.94 - found out when leaving). Why don't they just say $77? All the staff were nice but indifferent. Room 1604. No surprise - the room was pretty standard - queen bed, chair to sit in, TV, dresser. View of the street below. The kitchenette was good to have. We used the fridge and microwave - both were fine.

There was no bed spread, just a decorative bed throw, and none in the closet either. The shower rod was not secured to the wall properly and so the curtain would sag into the middle of the rod. Bathroom was more cramped than usual US-style property. Definitely 1 person at a time. The AC was a bit noisy.

Good value? Not in my opinion. $578 for Friday and Saturday night booked 5 weeks in advance. Probably needed to book earlier. Oh well.
