Location is unbeatable and worth the money. Time Square is just around the corner and there is a Hop on Hop off bus stop that is even closer. There are a lot of restaurant on the same street that make dining a very easy walk.
Check in is smooth and easy. Our flight are in late afternoon and we are able to leave the luggage in the hallway, secured by locks that Yasu & Akiko have prepared.
However, weekend nights can be a little noisy, because we are so close to the center.
Overall, our experience is wonderful and we would definitely recommend this place to our friends.
