This place was great if you want to stay near Time Square. Very clean, not super dated, had everything I needed in the room and they upgraded me. Note that this is a great place IF you want to stay near Time Square. This area can be loud at night; sirens, honking, trash pickup etc can all be heard at night. This is not the fault of the hotel, just the location. The hotel is great. You're right next to Time Square and Central Park, walking distance to most tourist spots and the red and yellow lines. The staff was good and friendly.
