Had a very pleasant two night stay - a super friendly front desk agent asked if she could upgrade me to one of the studios from the base "den" room - yes, please! As a globalist, received a little "gift" baggie containing a couple waters, a bag of chex mix, and shaving and shoe shining toiletries. The room looked like the one in 59Impala's review above, albeit with a king and two large windows overlooking the tram station. It was a bit noisy at night, but ear plugs were provided on the night stand. Unfortunately, even though the building is right by the water, the only views are from the 11th floor and rooftop lounge - room views are blocked by the adjacent building. The views from the lobby and rooftop are wonderful.

The location is a bit confusing for Uber drivers as the app tells them to pull in the back, not in front of the lobby - just be aware! If doing business in lower Manhattan, the ferry terminal adjacent to the hotel will get you there in 10 min and $7 each way. Alternatively, PATH station is also right next to the hotel, and it's one stop to the Oculus (WTC).

Free breakfast with omelet bar is decent, and there's actually a full service restaurant and lounge on site if one doesn't want to partake in NYC's culinary delights.

This is becoming my favorite property for visits to NYC, as I tend to fly in/out of EWR, and it's only a short ride away, and not having to deal with tunnel/bridge traffic is always a plus!


View from the lobby - you can see the ferry dock right across from the hotel (white canopy).
