    The rooftop bar was a great spot to chill after exploring Spice Alley and Central Park. We loved the comfy beds and the cleanliness of the place. Definitely check out nearby dining options for a fun night out.

    We had a hard time getting room service one night, waiting forever for drinks. It was a bit frustrating, but didn’t ruin our trip.

    The large showroom suite offered tasteful furnishings, high ceilings, and plentiful natural light, enhancing the relaxing atmosphere. Excellent reception staff promptly assisted in retrieving my left phone from a nearby restaurant. Unfortunately, the pool was too cold for use during my visit, and the overall dining options in the hotel could use improvement, especially given the rates charged.
