Absolutely perfect for our stay. We stayed here for 4 nights and paid roughly 100 bucks a night for a room w/ 2 beds. Manhattan is expensive... so if your doing NYC on a budget... this is the perfect place. If your expecting the Ritz or the Waldorf, you'll be seriously disappointed, but if your expecting a decent place to sleep for a reasonable price, this is it. Shared bathrooms were not a problem, we had 3 bathrooms on our floor and didn't have to wait more that 10 minutes to use one. On a dead end, quiet 71st street, the location is very nice and I felt very safe. Only 2 blocks from the subway and fabulous 71st st. cafe... this hotel might be the best deal in Manhattan!
