    Value for money

I loved the hotel, it was reasonably clean with very attentive staff at the reception desk. The location was stunning, not very far from Upper East Side.

It had nothing special views.

We strongly recommend this accommodation, thanks a lot for an exceptional stay. It is a well-appointed hotel with modern interior design, perfect location not far from the park and the metro and Central Park and Manhattan. The staff is really helpful, offer an early check-in and late check-out.

You guys made my stay best. I appreciated the hotel, it was magnificent and spotlessly clean with unbeatable location right on the park. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, I slept well.
