"Pretty nice building. Not around many shops, but right next to the highway so it was easy get to places if needed. Only downside is it was not clear on how to get into the amenities area. I did not know the code to the room was used to get in. Other than that, this place was very nice and spacious."

"Negatives: The room is so small it was hard to use the desk. So small there was no table to eat on. Had a broken toilet seat that was the wrong size. Images on line made the space look more luxurious. Positives: The room was very clean. The building is reasonably secure. The workout gym is amazing. The business space is very functional, quiet and inviting. Communication with management was efficient (but impersonal). I would consider using the company again."

The Gardens Sonesta ES Suites New York

10/10 Excellent
"This is a hotel we’ve stayed at several times. It is very convenient to train lines and close to restaurants and Cental Park. The kitchen is great if you want to do breakfast in the room and a grocery store is about a block away. Room is large too."
