Good good and impressed with hotel
Overall a very good hotel for what you pay for and the location was fantastic. The staff were very pleasant and were very helpful. The actual room was lovely and very spacious. The only thing that I think could have done better and that is decor, this was a bit dull but was clean. The bathroom was fairly new looking and had a big mirror.
I would most definitely go back there again.

Eest Location Possible
I can not get over how amazing the location was. I am a freelance photographer and went during the "blizzard of '06" in February. I knew it would be a good idea to take some photos in central park, so I set off on what I thought would be a long trip and realised I was there in less than 5 minutes ! The room was very good, apart from the bathroom which appeared to be very old and dirty. Most of the staff, especially the concierge was friendly and I definitely recommend this hotel for anyone who wants a mix between luxury and budget.

Really Impressed!
I was really nervous about staying here based on other internet reviews I had read prior to travelling. It certainly wasn't the plaza but what do people expect from a holiday inn? I found the location to be excellent, you can walk to Time Square and central park in about 5 minutes, the area also seemed really safe. I had no problems with the staff and they arranged a taxi for us to the airport! My only problem was the price; we paid almost 400 dollars including tax per night which I felt was way too much for a budget hotel, it’s a pity they try to rip off Christmas shoppers by almost trebling their prices!

Reservations were fouled up beyond all understanding.
Almost every reservation we made was wrong and seemed to get more fouled up with every supposed correction. The hotel staff were unpleasant (with one exception) to our exhausted incoming staff. It was a complete nightmare. The gift shop clerk was rude. The rooms were spacious, as one would expect from a Holiday Inn, and relatively clean. Decor was dull and somber. The toilet didn't work. Room service was very good. Location to our destination was good.
