Advantages: location - next to times square Disadvantages: bar prices and atmosphere
...this place. Having stayed at the Renaissance right on times square on my previous visit, we wanted somewhere similar location but not $500 a night.
Found the Time. We travelled in February when the room rate was $229 a night. Bargain with the exchange rate.
