There were 4 of us staying here, so we booked both one-bedroom rooms, which have a lockable door between them. That gave us a suite, in effect, with two kitchenettes, two bathrooms, two showers, etc., which worked well. These rooms are on the first floor, which made dealing with all our suitcases very easy. As others have mentioned, there is some noise in the West room as people come in and out of the hallway, and we did notice the pitter patter of feet in the unit above us. There also is a restaurant and hookah bar in the front building, which you walk through to get the the carriage house-style building in the back. All of this is common for NYC, and we’re used to this, but it’s good for people not familiar with NYC to know ahead of time.
The location is very good, not far from Times Square, easy access to the subway, lots of good restaurants nearby, but still a quiet neighborhood.
There are a lot of air fresheners here, which we took and wrapped in a double plastic bag for the duration of our stay, as the aroma was a bit much for us. There also was a slight issue when we arrived, as the supplied code did not open one door, and the other doorknob had been locked from the inside, so we couldn’t get in that one either. However, Val responded quickly, with a new code, so all was good.
