thereuare Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Welcome to BetterBidding!Congratulations on your success!A very nice deal for a 4* hotel in NYC! This property does have notoriously small rooms, but at this price, it's still an excellent deal for Manhattan, and the hotel has lots of litterary history. The lobby bar is a great place for a drink, as is the lobby at the Royalton across the street (both very different types of placed though)Thank you for sharing your win with the board.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Enjoy your stay.

iluvmysharpies Posted January 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Just wanted to add... I just found out the hotel offers FREE WIFI! Yay!Last time we were in NY, we stayed at the Hilton downtown and Wifi was NOT free... :-(Thanks for the heads up on the room size! I guess we can deal with that.... 8-) Link to comment
AaronJB Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Glad to hear the hotel offers free wi-fi; additionally, the hotel actually has its own cat - see link. Link to comment
