BEST HOTEL IN YEARS

Impeccable experience! We felt like we were staying in the highest caliber hotel in New York. Every attention to detail was made-- beautiful hotel with gorgeous rooms (real wood for once-- not that cheap faux wood), friendly staff-- too many good things to say. Will definitely come back again.
