My search criteria for this recent stay was: clean, safe and close proximity to Madison Square Gardens and it was all of this and then some! We arrived to a property that was spotless, in a neighborhood that offered us all of what needed and where we felt quite safe and was within a quick walk to all that we needed. Nittis down the street was the perfect place for all; including those with food intolerances and Scallywags was a wonderful place to have a nice drink and chat with the barkeep, and then Aroma across the street for a great breakfast and a wonderful cup of coffee, oh and don't forget Vito's who made arguably the best gluten free pizza I have ever tasted. Was it a bit loud, like some of the other reviews said, sure - BUT isn't that 1/2 the fun of a big city? Kerri was absolutely amazing with answering my questions with great suggestions and then proactively reaching out to make sure all was well. If you have the opportunity to take advantage of this property - please do - you will not be disappointed! Nex time I am NYC bound - I'll do my best to stay here again!
