I stayed at the Milford Plaza on my first trip to New York and had no idea about the city at all.
The hotel looks great from the lobby with escalators from the street level and it has a deli, gift shop and pub right underneath. There was always someone on duty by the lifts, always checking that you had a room key so it was fairly secure. It was in a great location, right on Times Square and next to the Broadway Theatres so there was lots to do right on your doorstep.
The rooms however were disappointing, and we didn't even have any power when we made it up there. It was quickly resolved though and we were able to settle in.
Our room was pretty basic - just the beds, a chair and tv on a stand - and I kept getting a static shock whenever I opened the door from walking on the carpet. There was a wardrobe which had an ironing board and iron in it, and was big enough to hang clothes and store any purchases.
On the first night I encountered a huge bug that originated from the bathroom and eventually disappeared out into the hallway through the gap underneath the door. That proved to be an isolated incident though, I didn't encounter anything else during the stay.
The bathroom itself was pretty basic although clean and tidy and there were some complimentary toiletries for us to use.
Our rooms were on the fifth floor and there was a lot of noise from outside, which was to be expected given the close proximity to Times Square. If you want to fall asleep before 4am then I would recommend taking some sort of ear plugs or ask for a room on a high floor.
We had a great stay in New York and there are definitely better hotels, but for the price we paid it was adequate. I can't remember the exact price but I know it was an offer at the time.
