Reviews
Karolina from Poland (9/10)

Alexander from United States (9/10)
Comfy bed, felt like home.
Melissa from United Kingdom (9/10)
What a fabulous find. Location was great, easy to get to the Metro that served literally everywhere in Manhattan. A Target and Trader Joe’s was in easy walking distance. The facilities in the suite were second to none. Having a fully equipped kitchen meant we could cook our own breakfasts which saved a lot of money. New York is incredibly expensive to eat in. The staff were just the best, friendly, helpful and just lovely.

Sian from Australia (9/10)
We loved the space in our room – very unusual for NYC. The kitchen was excellent! We enjoyed the quietness of the hotel and the location was brilliant. The bed was very comfortable and our outdoor area was an extra space to enjoy our time in NYC. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again.
