Park Central Hotel New York

Park Central Hotel New York

8/10 Good
"Room was spacious, bed was comfortable, location was excellent! Room was a little dated, and the bathroom smelled odd. This hotel feels like the bottom of the barrel for 4 Star hotels, but it still earns the distinction of being a 4 Star hotel."
