Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel
Great place very clean close to many locations. Loved that our room was big and came with two full body mirrors. Staff was great and so helpful when we asked for directions !! I would give it 5 stars however check-in was 2 and a half hours long I have never waited that long to check into a hotel ...

Hyatt Grand Central New York
The staff and everything was great! I was surprised there was a destination fee. I didn’t mind the fee, but I saw Expedia had already charged me for that fee so I was confused on Why I had to pay for it again when I checked in
