Pros: great location - very walkable to shops, bars and restaurants. Cute little open air lobby bar with mid range prices. The staff was all very friendly. Comfortable bed.
Cons: LOUD. I could hear the traffic noise so much that I kept checking the lanai door to make sure it was shut. It sounded like I was sleeping next to the freeway with the window open. I tried to switch rooms to one further back hoping it would help but they didn't have anything else available. The last night there I slept with the TV on and that helped a little but I didn't get a good night's sleep during my stay. I've stayed in NYC many times and it was more quiet than this room. The place was dated and didn't seem really clean, could just be because it was old. It took several minutes (literally) for the hot water in the sink to warm up. The shower was slightly better. Overall it was a good stay but you need to keep the cons in consideration.
