Positive:
The staff were friendly. The location was amazing. The bed was comfortable The breakfast offered gluten free options and was tasty.
Negative:
The walls seemed paper thin. Conversations in the hall and the toddler screaming next door seemed in the same room.
The air conditioning stopped working the second night. There was no refrigerator in the room so NYC's amazing leftovers went to waste.

Positive:
Good option in an expensive city. Room was large enough for 3 people (2 beds) but still New York size, i.e. small. Close enough to Central park and in a nice area of town. A little dated overall. Good breakfast offered next door with a discount.
Negative:
Expensive for what you get in the end, dated, not super comfy beds, loud A/C. Staff at reception.
Summary: Good option to be close to Central Park
