Had my night last night and it was great. There were 3 of us and we each had our own suites on 3 different floors. The rooms were great and I really appreciate the OP for letting us know about this one. The Omni did a nice job and the staff was great. We closed that bar down billybligh at 12:30...sorry we didn't have a chance to share a drink and talk about FT!

I find it rather nice of Omni to not cancel any of these bookings. If I were Omni though, I would be rather annoyed if people were trying to get even more benefits out of this deal by trading rooms....

Checked in yesterday for a 7 night stay Witnessed a guest checking out screaming at the manager and got free breakfast for one morning as a result. The hotel is obviously nice for $49 a night but I have no idea how they are charging rates upwards of $500.

So i ended my one week stay here... best hotel deal ever for sure.Free breakfast on the last day
The bathroom is definitely outdated... didn't have a lock (!!!!!) which is absurd for ANY hotel... door closed fine just no lock Nor ventilation. Otherwise fine, decent amenities.just not really anywhere in the same league as other 4 star hotel bathrooms (Intercontinental Times Square has an AMAZING one) I would have complained but I have to remember how much I paid. The suite was nicely designed, no street noise (though noise from the hallways was heard).

Nevertheless, nice hotel. The newly decorated ones are quite nice.

My suite windows didn't face the street...The room was next to the maid's closet but that didn't really bother me
The free breakfast was fine...nothing earth shattering, but really nice bread and was nice to have berries and freshly squeezed orange juice

One week stay - Berkshire Suite - facing inner courtyard which was a bonus considering the street construction. Dead quiet, impeccable staff, great room. It was definitely the deal of the year ^

Completed a 5 night stay last Saturday. The staff is amazing, the free fruit in the fitness room was a sweet bonus plus the comp drinks brought to our door each morning was a nice touch. We invited another couple and they were blown away by the size of the room and the amount we paid to stay right there in midtown walking distance to tons of sights. It was so convenient to hop on the subway a block away and get anywhere in the city. Talked to some people at the NBC Today show plaza who had to stay in NJ at a holiday inn express and because it was too much to stay in midtown. It was hard to tell them how much we paid to stay since it was at least half of what they paid. Greatest deal I have ever had all thanks to Flyertalk!!

I completed my two night stay on 6/12. Everything went quite well. I had a room on the 10th floor, one door down from the elevator. I heard absolutely nothing from the elevator or the hallway, and our room had a courtyard view.
On a side note, we asked the concierge where to get some ice cream, and he sent us around the corner to a little shop (Neuhaus?). Absolutely amazing ice cream.
