Fabulous stay!

What a great property! Beautiful, well taken cared for, professional and friendly staff, love the bathroom amenities and smart they are full size, better for the environment and good quality. It’s a great area of town. It’s not so touristy yet has really good restaurants nearby, parks close and natural history museum also nearby.

A great location in the upper west side. We found it to be quiet by New York standards with the occasional siren on the street below. Conveniently near many coffee shops and a good market for a quick breakfast or snack. Only a few blocks from a subway stop, Central Park, and the Museum of Natural History. Very walkable area and we appreciated having a doorman greet us at whatever time day or night we arrived back from a busy day in NYC!
