Very happy with my stay. Across the street from Lincoln Center. Staff was very nice. I was surprised they had no coffee in room or in lobby. I understand Starbucks is everywhere and a block from the hotel but coffee in the room or at least the lobby in the morning is expected. Otherwise I was happy with my stay and based on location would stay there again.

We were more excited about the property and had hoped for more. The lobby gives you 5 star and is amazing. The rooms just need to be updated. Our room AC did work though, and we had 2 king corner suite rooms. But, they just appeared old and it didn’t live up to the amount paid. It was still pleasant and the staff were very accommodating, nice, friendly and helpful.
