DoubleTree by Hilton New York Downtown
Our room was extremely clean, and they came by every day to clean it. I appreciated that very much. The service was excellent, front desk was extremely friendly and helpful. The location is great as it’s close to two subway stations. Not much food in the area, but everything else makes up for it. ...

Hotel Edison Times Square
Everything was great except for the $80 fee for early check in which led to a long line at regular check in.

Doubletree by Hilton New York Times Square South
The building itself is clean. The outside and surrounding area seemed a little unsafe I wouldn’t have gone out on my own. The room was very small even for 2 people. But the staff was nice and the hotel was clean. Worth it if on a budget and the outside doesn’t work.
