31 West 71 Street, Manhattan 10023From Google Maps reviews.
I was satisfied with my stay. I was not expecting much given the reviews and the price I paid (I visited in April). The room was decently clean, nice staff and the included breakfast was acceptable for my standards. Pro: - Perfect location near central park and metro station - Nice staff - Good size for the King sized room with big windows and a lot of light. - Breakfast included Cons: - They got some bleach stains in the corridor carpets. - The elevator is kinda slow - Some dust in the drawer

This place could use a good cleaning. The carpet was stained including a large stain that looked like blood. The furniture was also dirty. The windows had blue tape around them, perhaps to keep the room warm. The heat went out one of the 2 nights we were there. The front desk ladies were very nice and the location was perfect.
