Avalon Hotel - New York

Near to subways, and close to lots of restaurants. Great value

Clean hotel, near subway and short walk to great restaurants

room as you can see in the photos (I took the familiar one with 2 big beds and sofa) but it lacks a coat of paint that it has on the walls that the truth is quite bad. corridors of the plants tb need that coat of paint. otherwise room wide, clean and comfortable. only give you 2 breakfasts despite booking for 4 people. you don't understand! good breakfast (the bagels are delicious) variety of juices.. situation for my taste is unbeatable! next to the empire so you were in the middle of manhattan (i was about to take one next to time square but i'm glad i took this location) recommendation: shoes and walk!! no subway or buses, best way to live is walking!

Like I said the painting, only thing I included was two breakfasts and elevators were a little heavy!

The location and attention of the staff. Comfort of the beds and spaciousness of the room

Lack of soundproofing of the rooms. air conditioners' engines can be heard. At first we were on the 4th floor and when we complained they put us on the 8th floor. noise was more or less the same. problem is the lack of soundproofing. windows are not airtight and you can hear the noise of the air conditioning motors. hotel provides you with earplugs. As for breakfast, for the category and price of the poor hotel. While there were pasta, cereals, fruit, sausage there was no hot food for breakfast (no scrambled eggs, no bacon.. I have been to several hotels during my trip and they all had hot food for breakfast. If you take a room for two you get breakfast for two people, if you take a room for four you only get breakfast for two, other two have to pay for breakfast. Somehow it forces you to pay 30 euros extra per day for the four people to have breakfast together. My stay lasted 5 days, 3 days one of the two elevators of the hotel was broken. led to long waits to go up or down.

It was right in the middle of Manhattan so really you could walk pretty much anywhere that you wanted to go. The room was nice and the staff was fairly friendly. It was right in the middle of Korea Town and I personally love Korean Barbecue so I mean, that's kinda me-specific.

The hotel staff didn't seem to know about local pizza places which was odd. The tv wasn't working very well and we weren't able to rent movies on their system.

quite hotel for NYC

The location is perfect, 2 minutes walk to the empire state building, about 15-20 minutes walk to times square, 5 minutes to the subway station and loads of restaurants around.

It is a pretty old hotel, it sure need some renovations specially in the bathroom, the service we got was not that of a 4 star hotel, maybe 3 stars.

Location is brillent for shopping,

Staff very frindly and helpful - excellent position

The room was immaculate - comfortable bed, beautiful bathroom. Small problem with the mini bar, but not an issue. Staff spoke Italian. Very quaint hotel. Would stay again.

Towels were a bit thin and not very many. No robes in the jr. suite. No daily paper at the door.

Location was great and in the main the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good value and of good quality.

We arrived at noon and had to wait until 3pm which was the official check in time. We sat adjacent to the front desk during this time but were not advised when the room was ready. There was no hotel information in the room and I was advised this was due to new ownership and printing of new material not being completed. The connector on the network cable in our room was broken and I advised the front desk of it butit was not fixed during our stay. They have a long way to go before I could recommend this establishment even though I understand it is under new management and there are transition issues which should not be the responsibility of guests who should not notice any difference.

Buena ubicación, confortable, buen servicio, habitación amplia, buen aseo, cuenta clara, buena experiencia.

La relación precio-beneficio del dasayuno no es adecuada.

The location of the hotel was verry good.

The staff were very helpful. While I now think there are better locations in New York for a five day trip it is quite central and good for shops.

There is no bar or room service. While the breakfast was good value the breakfast room was positively bleak with bare worn tables to eat at. The bedrooms and bathrooms need to be redecorated.

The staff were fantastic as was the location

They wanted to authorise a credit card to the entire value of the room plus incidentals up front when we arrived. We intended to pay cash and neither of us have a credit card with a limit that big anyway, but they let us put the incidentals on a card instead and dully refunded it on our departure.
