1. Do not use the minibar fridge for storage of your own items, there is one in the bathroom which came on very handy.

2. Pros:* Amazing views - I had great views of Central Park from my room* Subway access - you can enter the N or R line straight outside the door* Location in general - a great place to stay with plenty to do & see nearby* Historic charm - it had an old school charm to it which I enjoyed* Good service - easy check-in and check-out, and they mistakenly billed me for minibar items I didn't use, and they quickly removed it off my bill no questions asked* Room size - in this area, rooms are typically very small given the high cost of real-estate.

3. We was a bit annoyed that reception tried to charge us for taking some items from the minibar when we didnt have anything but when we confronted them they took it off the bill without any questions.

6. The minibar is motion-sense activated so anything you remove for longer than 20 seconds gets automatically billed.

8. Also the minibar in the room had a note on to say that it was motion sensored, we did not use the mini bar as the prices were very expensive but did on checkout get a bill for items on there, I queried this with reception and advised that we did not use it and the bill was cancelled.
