The hotel was satisfactory for me. I intended to stay in Manhattan to explore that part of New York for work and pleasure. The host was very responsive. I only have good things to say about the host. I think the hotel is a little old and could do with an upgrade. There were small stains on the carpet and on the curtains although the cleaners did an excellent job as I believe the stains required more than cleaning. The bathroom was a good size for a stay in Manhattan but was very disappointed in the aluminum sink. The hotel is in a good location of NY and the wifi was strong enough. The lobby of the hotel came in handy to sit and work. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Overall good value but improvements could be made internally to the building to increase the quality.
