It was EXCEPTIONAL time in New York. The bed was amazing and it was great having balcony, terrace and flat-screen TV. The rooftop bar in the hotel had variety of non-alcoholic coffee, tea, beers and wines throughout the day. Also, you can use high speed internet access throughout the property.

Awful area.
