Excellent location - less than 10 mins walk to Times Square/Subway. A lot of dining options in the area. Make sure to bring the ear plugs with you, because the room facing the main street can be quite noisy at night - I'm not complaining, that's what you should expect if you want to stay in the center of the city. Otherwise, it is a very good base camp to explore Manhattan.
Didn't meet Vapee in person but Bob checked us in. Bob is very responsive and helpful. I texted him few times during my stay, and I always got his reply in few minutes. Thank you Bob!
