The hotel offers spacious, clean, and extremely comfortable rooms but lacks a coffee machine. Unfortunately, there were strange disturbing noises throughout the nights that hindered my sleep. The default TV setting was also a minor inconvenience.

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel despite a few drawbacks. The rooms were comfortable but lacked soundproofing and had some outdated furniture. The service was a mixed bag with some staff being less than friendly. The location was excellent for exploring the city but watch out for extra fees. The dining experience had its ups and downs. Overall, it was a decent stay with room for improvement.

The hotel offers large rooms by New York standards, but some were in poor repair, prompting a room change and a refunded resort credit. Having coffee makers in rooms would be a nice touch. The service was generally accommodating, though some staff members were not as friendly as expected. The location is convenient for appointments and sightseeing, being close to Central Park and within walking distance of Times Square. The dining experience had its drawbacks in terms of cost and quality.

The hotel rooms had a smell of drains or plumbing emanating from the bathroom, and they are pricey for what you get; however, they offer huge windows with views of the park and passing carriages. The overall stay was tainted by the unpleasant odor resembling old dirty socks, making it difficult to spend time in the room.

The hotel rooms were spacious but in need of a modern shower, and the street noise made it hard to sleep. A refurbishment is necessary for a better stay experience. The location is perfect, right at the entrance of the park in Manhattan, and the service was a mix of pleasant professionalism and unfriendliness. The dining options were limited and expensive.

I was really pleased with my stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfy and clean, and we even got a park view, which was a nice touch. The bed was so comfortable, and they were ready for us to check in early, a great perk.

I was pleasantly surprised by the room size given the prime location on Central Park South in Manhattan. Although not prepared for my specific request for two adults and a child, the room was beautiful, very comfortable, and clean, albeit slightly dated. The service was top-notch, with all staff being incredibly helpful and polite. The location, right in front of Central Park on iconic Central Park South, was fantastic, and having a subway stop across the street was super convenient. The dining experience, while overpriced, was fine, but I felt it could have been better. The facilities were great overall.
