1. The only thing we did not like was that breakfast in the amazingly small (for a 14 floor hotel) breakfast area where we had a buffett style breakfast that was so overpriced it was laughable(ended up paying $44.

2. The decor was a little strange, but how much does decor really matter anyway? We thought the hotel was a bit overpriced, but we had a nice stay.

3. Unfortunately, our expectations from the home of 'customer service' were not fulfilled and the 'extras' dotted around the room were way overpriced, including the daily unpriced bottle 1.

7. The one thing that really stood out about this place was the extensive 'mini-bar' offerings - from the standard min-fridge w/overpriced sodas & liquors to half bottles of Louis Jadot white & red wines on the counter to a full basket with snacks on the desk and a guidebook to NYC on the nightstand.
