Too noisy to get any sleep at all. We were on the 15th floor. They provided ear plugs but they didnt help. Very unfortunate.

The hotel and the staff were nice. The only problem was that our lights in the room didn’t work. We were just very busy and we didn’t call for maintenance. However, I think that the rooms should be checked before guests check in.

The Freehand is in a convenient area to walk to many destinations and its also only one block from a subway line. The staff was all courteous and answered any questions we had. The rooftop bar is a nice option to spend time with a group. We also enjoyed the unique art and furniture in our room and the charm of the old renovated public areas.
