It was only a pitstop in NYC to see a show we had tickets for, coming back from Europe, so we went for it.

I really can't recommend the hotel though. It's got inadequate elevator service, tiny rooms, that bathroom thing where you have no place to set any toiletries without risking them falling on the floor or into the toilet, and crummy noise insulation because although the walls between rooms and the exterior windows are just great, the room doors themselves allow in every decibel from the halls.
But hey -- for $155 per night in Manhattan, you got good value for money. Sounds like it was worth every penny and then some.
