We had a one bedroom condo which was very clean and quiet. The location was very convenient to get all over the city as the subway was only a few blocks away. It could us an update but we would definitely stay there next time we are in Manhattan

The room is very comfortable and very sizable. It was loud. I was on the street side. The bed was very comfortable, but I think the pillows were not. I like very much that there was a restaurant right at the base of the hotel and was in walking distance of Grand Central and surrounding areas. The staff was very nice and helpful.
