Our stay at the Executive Plaza was wonderful. It is on 51st street, right in the heart of the Broadway district, with walking distance from everywhere--Central Park, 5th Avenue, or Times Square. The security is excellent as are the security doormen. There is an elevator as you walk into the building past security to an elevator that takes you down one floor; from there you walk a short distance down a corridor to another elevator that will take you up to your floor and your room. It's *very* protective. Our 12th floor room was cozy and clean and without a lot of outside noise (except on saturday night till about 1 am). We had a one-bedroom, and the couch has a slide-out (not a fold out), mostly for a child or someone about 5 '.(Foam toppigns are provided for the bedroom mattress and the couch, to provide more comffort in sleeping if the mattress is to soft or too hard) The place is provided with a frig, oven with burners, and microwave; and the water pressure from the shower is excellent. A very comfortable and lovely stay.
