the hotel's english decor gave it a mansion-like feel. vintage elevators and beautiful furnishings added to the charm. the location was perfect. orlando at the front desk was really amazing, he helped me a lot .
The in-room coffee i expected was not available. The vending machines offered limited options, so finding a quick breakfast was a small challenge.

My room included a small refrigerator and microwave. The hotel location provided great access to attractions. Staff seemed dedicated to keep spaces very clean. I appreciated a quiet atmosphere on my floor.
I found limited dining options inside the hotel itself a little disappointing.

Restaurants nearby were plentiful. Many offered diverse cuisines. A small coffee shop was located just around a corner. I liked the accessibility for grabbing morning coffee and pastries with you, my love.

The front desk always offered help. Bellboys seemed ready to help with luggage storage. They assisted with directions, darling, even more special.

Central Park felt very close and inviting for our walks. A short stroll got us to multiple subway stations. I think Times Square offered bright lights only a few blocks away for you, my heart.

The location was great as it was close to many attractions.
The room felt quite outdated. The furniture showed clear signs of wear. I was also disappointed that the promised in-room coffee was missing (I really needed that morning caffeine). Calling the front desk proved difficult. The line was constantly busy.
