The location of the hotel is excellent for getting around manhattan , very central for sightseeing and close to the subway stations if going a longer distance . The staff were all very friendly and professional and the rooms were clean , comfortable and larger than we expected for New York . The only downside was the breakfast , it was complete chaos every morning . The area is far too small to cater for that amount of people , we found ourselves grabbing some food and taking it back to our rooms . This experience for us was unacceptable and would , with regret stop us ever going back .
