8. We were allocated a room on the 20th floor and unfortunately, you won't get much of a view at this height, but if you come to New York to sit in a hotel room, you are in the wrong city.

9. We arrived in the middle of the day, check in was somewhat slow and I have to say that I was disappointed with the person we checked in with and there was unfortunately no 'warm welcome', just as when we checked out they didn't even bother to ask if we had enjoyed our stay or if anything had been ok.
