1. A very good selection of bagels (fresh), fruit, cereals, yoghurt, juices, coffee and tea.
|
2. Lots of markets/delis nearby where you can get anything from washing powder, beer, to fresh fruit and veg and dinners (hot or microwaveable).
|
3. No, the hotel doesn't have a doorman or bellmen, but given the consistent value, well, who cares?Breakfast, consisting of pastries, bagels, cereals, juice, some fresh fruit, such as bananas, is often welcome, but life as we know it isn't over if we don't partake, leaving us free to go to Zabar's (a MUST visit EVERY SINGLE TIME -- trust me on this.
|
4. Loads of carbs if you like them (fresh bagels, bread, coffee cake), coffee, tea, apples, bananas and yogurt sometimes.
|
5. The hotel is situated in a wonderful neighbourhood with shops, cafes and fantastic markets, featuring cheeses, breads, deli selections, fresh produce right around the corner.
|
6. We liked the location, in the upper west side and very close to the amazing Fairway Market where you can buy all sorts of fresh produce as well as dry goods and staples.
|
7. A rudimentary (free) continental breakfast could have used some fresh fruit and more healthy options, but it was a nice surprise to have it on offer at all, as was the hot apple cider discreetly available in the lobby in the late afternoon.
|
8. Hotel is converting rooms to in-room air conditioning from window units - but windows are openable for fresh air.
|
9. Plus the very excellent West Side Market is just round the corner with fresh fruit, prepared meals, everything you might want.
|
10. There is a free breakfast available everyday (juice, fresh fruit, cereal, bagels and spreads, little pastries, drinks) which is very unusual for New York and delightful.
