Staff was super helpful! The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was because there were plumbing problems with our tub and toilet. Otherwise, everything was clean, comfortable and plenty of space for our family of 5. The sofa bed was surprisingly very comfortable! Also loved that we were able to store our bags at the hotel on the day we checked out!

I love the Sonesta hotels and this one is no exception. The hotel is very clean and updated and the staff make you feel so welcome. The location on 3rd is extremely convenient to all things midtown and the subway. You won’t regret booking here!

Our room was spacious. The concierge was a hit or miss and desk staff seemed friendly enough during check-in. We did have issues with the heat in our room. We had the thermostat set on 70° and every 30 minutes or so the temperature would rise to above 80°, so we would have to get up numerous times at night and turn off, let it cool down and turn back on. This was reported to front desk many times throughout our stay and it was never addressed.

Room was clean and location was perfect for E subway from JFK (via the Airtrain). Perfect location for sight seeing (1 mile to Central Park/Grand Central and close to Rockefeller/St Patricks Cathedral/5th Avenue) Staff were friendly. No restaurant in the hotel but plenty of food outlets /restaurants within 100 yards (Theres a McDonalds and a Subway in same block and Starbucks etc within a minutes walk). Doorman and concierge were very helpful. The hotel did take a $300 dollar resort tax as expected on arrival but you can get $10 of snacks/drinks from the lobby each day (at $6 for a drink etc it doesnt go far though!).
