Bottom Line

What we loved

Comfortable King size bed, firm mattress with minimal partner motion transfer.
Attentive, courteous personable staff (not too stuffy).
Spacious room with minimal functional decor that hid clutter. Appreciated the hardwood floors where the bed was on a large rug.
Spacious bathroom with dual vanity, water closet, soaking tub & separate shower. However, I never figured out how to enable the heated floors.
During check-in was told the Globalist breakfast credit was $90 per day. Day 1 total of $150 and day 2 total of $230 were fully removed.
Large gym with sauna & locker rooms.
The hotel has a small indoor pool with great views.
Fully stocked mini bar which included two sets of drink glasses and coffee cups.
There were fresh flowers in the bathroom.
Daily housekeeping and turn-down service.
The blacklight test came up negative, and the room was very clean (as expected).
Electronic controls of lights and curtains; curtains could be partially opened.
Blackout curtains kept 95% of the sunshine out.
The room had outlets located on both sides of the bed.
US Open art throughout the lobby along with a gallery on the ground floor.

What we did not like

Wifi speed slow - unable to get on premium wifi.
Two elevator systems - one to the lobby and the other to the guest rooms.
Chromecast was not working in the provided panel under the TV.
The living room TV did not swivel, which prevented viewing from any location other than directly in front.
Expensive dining options.
The room did not have USB charging and there were limited available outlets in the “living room”.
Our 10th (of 25) floor room looked into the Carnegie Hall offices across the street.

Verdict

Booked a two-night stay in a King Bed for 50k points before the dynamic pricing went into effect. The week of check-in, the standard King Bed room was listed for $1,325 each night or 35k points. With a great location near Central Park, along with personable staff and modern rooms, we will definitely stay here (on points) again when in New York.
