Great location, service and atmosphere. We had a great time during our stay and we look forward to staying here again. We found out our flight got canceled right after checking out, and they were able to accommodate us and help find a different room that we could get into right away without having to wait for their regular 3pm check in time.

Always amazing. The rooms are all well-appointed, and the blackout curtains are effective. Filtered water station on every floor. The rooms all have a bench and table that work well for video calls. Super friendly staff... Noel and Peter at the cafe are the best!

I liked the hotel, some of the people I was traveling with were not as thrilled with it. The location was pretty good - we could walk pretty easily to NYU (bookstore & Dental School - about 30 minute walks) & it was easy to Uber to Battery Park (walkable, but about an hours walk) or Times Square (about an hours walks), but not as close to our class as we were informed. Checkin was strange (no true desk, just a bunch of iPads to do a self-checkin (but there was someone there to help). We didn’t use it, but a nice bar area on the main floor, a larger bar above it & a very nice rooftop bar. The rooms were a little smaller, but very functional and I didn’t feel “compressed” in it. I thought it looked a bit “IKEA” in the furniture, but it was a nice bright wood color, very fresh & clean looking. A couple of the people in our group complained that they thought the hallways were slightly dark/dim. I’ve stayed at other hotels in NYC & frequently have been able to hear sirens & street noise (even if on a high floor), & I didn’t really have that staying here. There was a man when we were checking in asking about the 2nd floor bar & if it was open/having music on Sunday night, because he said they were on the 3rd floor & could hear the noise/music from the bar through the floor of their room all night long. I personally wouldn’t avoid this hotel, but as I said there were some quirks with checkin & a few of my colleagues had a couple questions.
