I’ve said this in other reviews, but there’s no reason to pay $500 per night in Manhattan. I’m not there for the hotel; I’m there for Manhattan. Having said that, this place gave us everything we wanted for the price: a comfortable bed, a hot shower, a clean room, and fantastic access to the rest of the city. The staff was delightful. The space was quirky and lovely. It might be a little tight for a family with kids, but for a couple traveling the single queen room was perfect. It’s truly an exemplar of what a traveler’s hotel in the city can be. Make sure to visit the Landmark Coffee and Pancake Diner across the street. The owner was a fresh dose of maternal loving we needed before traveling again. The area is imminently walkable with Chinatown, NoHo, SoHo, and Tribeca all within reach. Washington Square isn’t far. There are multiple train stops around for heading up to the park or into BK. It’s a choice stay. Remember, always be nice to staff!
