52 West 36 Street, Manhattan 10018From Google Maps reviews.
The location was ideal for us, an easy walk to Times Square & Madison Square Gardens and convenient shopping & restaurants nearby. Every staff person we encountered was polite and professional. The included breakfast was quite good. The hot/cold water machine in the lobby was wonderful to have. The dining area and lobby sitting area look renovated. The viewing deck isn't fancy but our group made good use of it to hang out. The gym was being renovated and we were not able to use it for the first
This has a fantastic location that comes at a cost of the nightlife noise outside. They did provide earplugs in the room which did help but it will be very noisy at night. The two elevators are slow and the housekeepers took our towels away but did not give us new ones. The breakfast is about what you would expect. If you do not mind the noise or a heavy sleeper then this might be a good hotel for you.
I will start by saying the staff, especially Pablo and Jose, are amazing. They really were helpful and made the stay extra enjoyable. However the rooms were not the greatest. When paying the prices we did I do expect the beds to be more comfortable and the sofa sleeper not to be the shape of a taco where it can’t be used as paid for.
