I am actually writing this as I sit in my shoebox sized room. This hotel needs major updates. The lobby is nice and appealing but when you get on the elevator to go up to your room.....you will be in for a surprise. There is paint peeling from the doors. It's very dingy looking. The one great thing is that it's located close by everything in Times Square. I think it should be rated a 2 star.
