"The hotel is unique in decor. It is older, but very clean and antique decor. I loved it. We were pleasantly surprised to get a larger room. Very close to Central Park and Museum across the street. Also subway is close. We walked to the theatre district for a play. I was so happy to find that cleaning staff found my wallet. I had left it in the safe and staff had given it to the office. What a huge relief!! Nice to know we do have some decent honest people in this world!! Excelsior is our...

"In reality this is a youth hostel. The washrooms were a disaster and the windows that do open also let in the cold weather which at 32 degree and lower is not a good thing. TV's don't work except the one in the lobby, Insufficient bedding (ask for extra towels and blankets and they will be provided) and rather uncomfortable sagging beds with thin and sagging mattresses. No maid service during stay. No frills to the max!"

"Good location on Upper West Side -- easy sfe walks to 72nd and 79th IRT stations. Lincoln Center also an easy 15' or less walk. Fairway Supermarket across on Broadway and Trader Joes just a couple blocks down so one can take advantage of room kitchenette if you wish (and it was decently stocked in terms of utensils and pots and pans). Lots of restaurants nearby. My king sized room was apporpriately spacious and worth the extra $$$. Elevators worked well and at most had to wait one minute. All...
