Perfect location for visiting our daughter who lives in the Gramercy neighborhood. Our room was clean, comfortable, and surprisingly spacious. The housekeeping and front desk experiences were exceptional. We also really enjoyed the three on-site restaurant/bar options. We look forward to staying here again.

Average stay

We stayed in the queen + bunk bed room for our family of 3. The way the bunk and ladder were set up proved very difficult for our daughter to get in and out of, so I took the bunk and my husband and daughter slept in the queen. Neither mattress was especially comfortable. The bunk under the mattress hadn’t been cleaned.
Barbara, 4-night trip
