Manhattan is somewhere that’s been on my bucket list ever since I was a kid. I stayed here for 5 days, the first half was business and the second half was leisure. I have to say that this property played a big part in making my trip memorable and enjoyable. It’s located in the heart of the Financial District which makes the location highly convenient. Wall St is only a few blocks away, the train station is also within walking distance. A plethora of restaurants and shops can also be reached by foot. My favorite spot in this area would be the pier. Per recommendation by Dasia (reception), I went there one evening and ended up going almost every day of my trip. It’s a less than 10 min walk. It had a perfect view and several options for drinks/food as she had mentioned.

Dasia and the rest of the FD staff were incredible and some of the best I’ve encountered. I’ve worked in hospitality for several years and stayed in countless hotels, so I know what it takes. Each FD agent were friendly, professional, polite and very knowledgeable about the area and NY in general. I enjoyed chatting with Dasia, Ashley and Kevin in the mornings. And in the evenings I had the pleasure of speaking with Jessica and Akeyla.

Akeyla deserves a special shout-out. I love Japanese food, and asked her one evening for a restaurant recommendation. She asked which foods in particular I wanted, and diligently researched the local options for me. She told me to try Zutto Japanese Bar in Tribeca, and gave me very clear instructions/directions with the subway. (Which I greatly appreciated as I’m from Nashville where we have almost no public transport and drive everywhere). I loved the restaurant and even went back a second time.

This hotel is phenomenal and I will definitely stay here again next time I am in The Big Apple.

This hotel is a hidden gem, especially if you want to stay in the financial district. It is within a short walk to the Wall Street subway station as well as Fulton Street so you can get virtually anywhere the subway goes.

The rooms were large for a New York City hotel, meaning you can walk around the beds and adequately use the desk which is rare in most hotels in NYC. The staff is uniformly friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.

The AC worked great, which was much appreciated on 90F /90% humidity days in the summer. The room was quite for New York City.

I called in advance because my daughter and her friends are coming to New York from California to celebrate her 21st birthday. The manager, Ralph, was very accommodating with my request and he was able to book the rooms altogether.
Kevin at the front desk was also very friendly upon my daughter's check in.
Rooms are very clean.

In addition to the friendly atmosphere, my daughter received a personalized birthday letter with a bottle of wine. Thank YOU to the whole team for making this happen!!
My daughter and her friends had a memorable 21st birthday celebration. We will definitely be back again!
