Stayed here on Tuesday for $133, needed a cheap place to rest the head after Oasis, was very pleasantly surprised.
No issue checking in at 2.30pm or confirming the next day 4pm late checkout (was working from the room). Lobby area and bar/restaurant very nice and the lounge on 21 was stocked with the usual snacks/soda/coffee but very nice space (worked from 4-6 up there) with a beautiful terrace with the view of midtown/ESB. Room tight (no upgrade but totally happy to forgo for early checkin/late checkout) and a little bit worn but the bathroom looked recently renovated and had solid shower pressure and what appeared to be upper quality toiletries (can't remember the name). Housekeeping didn't disturb me til 3.45pm which I rate highly too. Great location to the A for midtown/airports.
No hesitation staying here again, I would say its solid value all the way up to $300 at peak NYC times (Nov-Dec weekend nights).
