Hotel St. James

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was always clean only 5 min walking from time square always came back to clean room would highly recommend"

Hotel Edison Times Square

8/10 Good

"The staff were very helpful and kind whenever we interacted with them. The family room we were in was a lot smaller than the pictures shown, and the beds were fairly small. But, I think we just may have had bad luck and ended up with a smaller one. But otherwise everything was clean, and for only a one night stay it worked out amazing because of how close to the theaters it was."
