Couldn’t have picked a better place to celebrate my birthday. The beds were incredible after a long day of walking uphill and climbing flights of stairs. The staff was excellent and decorated my room for my arrival. The location was great and we frequented Blank NYC coffee as it was next door to the hotel. Be prepared for some noise as the hotel is next to a bar full of university students. The noise can carry well into the hours of 3-4am.
