What a gem of a place! Having read a number of reviews before coming, I was a bit concerned that the room would be a bit below par and that the area would be incredibly noisy but these are very misguiding in my opinion. The room is very cool - minimalist and basic but great and stylish. The location is fantastic - right in the centre of the Union Square area making everywhere highly accessible - and the noise we experienced was next to none and we slept soundly for our 4 night stay. Staff were really friendly and accommodating - would highly recommend and a great price!
