    The location was great, we came from another hotel in which had very bad internet in Times Square, here the internet was very good, initially we received a room which smelled like a cheap cigars club, but the staff was very helpful and changed it immediately. The room was ok, the furniture could have been better, the room was a good 3 stars one, but not 4 stars.
