We lucked out and got a north facing room. Absolutely stunning view of the One World and the world trade center memorial plaza.

It has a lobby on the 5th floor, so you do have to take two elevators to get to your room, but the lobby bar is actually pretty good. Bartender kept refilling the mixed nuts on the sly and made sure to slide over some water glasses without us even asking.

The restaurant was still under renovation, but everything else we really enjoyed. Rooms were very large by NYC standards. There was only one full length mirror inside the closet (would rather have one in the hallway that's always there), and not a ton of drawer space, but plenty of outlets and USB ports to charge the plethora of gadgets we brought with us.
