I wanted to like this location. We visit Birdland, across the street, a few times a year. Unfortunately, there were several issues to kick this review down to average, maybe below average.
On the positive side, staff are great; the room is clean with newer and comfortable bedding, newer furnishings and recently remodeled bathroom. The included breakfast had oatmeal, cereal, eggs, sausage, ham and cheese sandwich, small yogurts and actually good coffee. The location is superb, and the price was very attractive for midtown.
On the negative side, the room is small (the website claims 260 sq ft, more like 200), I reserved a king size bed and the room was a queen size with visibly less space than the website picture (several other reviews here had the same experience with that, what's going on?), I was on the 7th floor, two rooms away from the elevator, but all night long and especially in the morning, hear a mechanical clang-clung-clang every time the elevator stopped on a floor, I could not sleep; the a/c thermostat was defective so that the room setting was a high point and would cool the room down 5 degrees before shutting cooling, so sleeping was either very cold or very hot - a mechanic, who did not understand or speak English very well, drained the a/c of water and left, not fixing the thermostat issue; breakfast fruit was just a small apple and there are tables for about 15 people, so I inconveniently ate on a sofa; the elevator is painfully slow and tests your patience.
