Staff and amenities were fabulous!! Stayed here for 5 nights on a trip for tourism and it was perfectly situated for the Broadway shows and to get away from the hustle and bustle of being a tourist.

I wish there was a coffee maker in the room, also the TV was very small and angled away from the bed. It was super quiet, which was great, and very clean and warm.
