I had an amazing time at the Stratford Hotel! It was just as the listing described with all around the clock receptionists who were SUPER attentive and helpful during my stay!
This hotel is super convenient as it is steps away from Union Square and the heart of the shopping district. You'll encounter everything from bars, bodegas, restaurants, and name brand stores that is easily accessible. If I were to stay in the city again, I don't think I'd go another route.
