1. We had some complaints about the noise, as the walls are thin and nobody wants to hear the overweight cackles of a tourist who had too many Long Island Ice Teas.

2. We were on the 54th floor, and while the noise was there, it was hardly noticeable.

4. I was on one of the highest floors and had no problems with street noise (I was facing a side street and NOT Times Square though).

5. The higher you go, the less noise you'll hear but I am not a fan of staying in high floors anyway so this wasn't too bad.

7. If you prefer to walk out of your hotel and not be immediately engulfed by a sea of humanity and all that entails (lights, noise, street vendors, tour promoters, and millions of people), then you might want to consider staying in another part of NYC.

9. the only night i was there, we kept hearing noise outside (understandably, this is Time Square), but it was very unpleasant.

10. Reception while pleasant they didnt appear all that interested and the rooms could potentially do with a deep clean behind desks etc (pen fell down the back of desk and was a bit surprised)All in all a fabulous stay in New York, hotel is in a fantastic location, so close to everything and even though times square is crazy busy we were not disturbed by the noise outside.
