The location was perfect, the room was very spacious and had a great design separating the bedroom from the bathroom. The bed was extremely comfortable. Loved the light system that allowed you to turn off all the lights from the bed. Loved that we had water at the room at all times.

The location being right in the middle of Timesquare justifies its rate. The staff at the check in counter is very attentive and friendly.
