I was a little worried when I read all the negative reviews. One even said this property gives Best Western a bad name. Ummm. I assume you’re not from the US since this is the nicest Best Western I’ve seen. If you want a hotel with large rooms, you can always pay above $300/ night at a 3.5 to 5 star hotels.
Just like all big city 3stars and below hotels in Tokyo, NYC, London, Singapore etc, rooms are always small. This property has small rooms but not too small. I haven’t hit my ankle or knee cap on anything in my 7 night stay. They have 4 fast elevators running non stop from the main lobby (3rd floor to the top floor). There’s only 10 rooms per floor.
The minute you approach the front desk, the staff are very attentive, friendly, helpful and accommodating. When you walk in your room, the room is very clean and looks amazing for a hotel that’s over 10 yrs old. The body wash and the conditioning shampoo are not bad at all. Sheets are very white and stain free. The air conditioner works really well cooling down the room and runs 24hrs a day.
Yes! The mattress is very firm. If you want soft mattress, don’t know if they have an option for that. But the towels are clean and large. Water pressure is strong. I just wish the light above the sink is brighter so I can see better while shaving.
The location is perfect for me. It’s located on one side of the bridge where all the local hole in the walls are at and the other side of the bridge is Time Square shopping mall/area.
