The property itself was a bit outdated. The room was a bit cluttered and small but that's to be expected in NYC. The outlets were in terrible shape and require updating but otherwise it was walkable to Times Square and very convenient for the meetings I had.

The heater wouldn’t shut off and we told the management and it still was unbearably hot. The outlets were missing their faceplates. The light behind one of the beds was unplugged and on further investigation found water coming from the outlet hole in the wall. The coffee pot was missing. None of these were addressed by the staff before we left.

Cheap for the area. Room was clean, but had large stain on box spring skirt. No mirror in bathroom, only mirror inside closet door. A/C worked. As others have noted, elevators are small and often don’t work. They worked when I checked in and one was out of service when I checked out. Staff was friendly enough.
