"Went here mid June for 8 nights, i was Very Pleased with our room! Way more than I thought was possible for the price. It was remodeled and very spacious&modern looking. (Note: only a part of the hotel is remodeled yet) The fridge was super; the microwave worked well although we only used it once. No problems with the shower/hot water; we filled the bath multiple nights , the pressure and temperature were good. Tv was very nice, we spend quite a lot time inside the room and it was big enough for my daughter to practice dance moves and storage her costumes. The staff was Super Friendly, they showed interest in my daughter's ballet progress during her competition in the theater across the street. They would ask her how it went each day and were really happy and supportive. They really made us feel welcome and at home. I ordered some packages before and during my stay and they were very helpful and remembered my name after 1 day. Tea, coffee, bananas and 3 types of cookies/snacks were provided each day. The snack machine was working well. Enough choices to eat in this street/area (most do close before 11pm so 1night we ate the chips from the machine as a very late 'diner') the staff provided plenty of water bottles /extra shampoo/towels and the cleaning ladies were very nice; they were flexible in cleaning hours which was helpful since we were resting a lot in our room between rehearsals/dancing etc. The dust on our bedstands is the only 'negative' thing i can mention. The metro station in 96street is perfect! They have a 24/7 info boot. The hotel staff arranged a very luxury taxi for our ride back to the airport . A bit more $$ compare to the yellow cab we took from JFK but i didn't mind due of the friendly staff at the hotel and the very nice car; it was a great last ride. I would definitely rebook again!"

"Very pretty hotel, and my room was small but comfortable. My one complaint about the room was that there was a step between the bedroom and the bathroom, which was easy to trip on in the middle of the night. I was also uncertain why I prepaid, but was then charged another $22 when I got to the hotel and would have appreciated more communication surrounding this. Still, you can't beat the convenience of the location and I appreciate that I was able to book on very short notice!"

"My kids and I stayed here the week before Christmas. The hotel is perfectly located with regards to the subway, food, grocery stores and just about anything else you might need. The hotel itself is nice and clean. Our room was very clean upon arrival and throughout our stay. Microwave and mini-fridge in the room; coffee in the lobby was a little inconvenient, but not a deal breaker. Front desk staff was helpful. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit."
