This is my absolute favorite hotel in NYC! The best location (vibrant intersection of Chinatown and Little Italy, close walk to Lower Eastside, ez subway connections); wonderfully accommodating, helpful, and friendly folks that work there; clean, comfortable, and incredibly well designed rooms; and breathtaking views from our private balcony (getting that in my modest price range??!!) and the shared rooftop deck!!! I mean-- wow! Really made for a special 4-days of exploring the city with my 14-yr-old. Thank you!
