    I found it an incredibly fun place to be, it has a vibe about it (especially if you're there when something's happening like a big news event) but it could just be that i'm one of these strange people who enjoys being in the middle of some madness!
    Retired member - fed up with the general tone of the place.

    I always took "so and so is great right near times square" to mean that it's central and in easy reach of most of the sights of Manhattan, not that Times Sq is particularly special in itself.
    Let's settle this like gentlemen: armed with heavy sticks
    On a rotating plate, with spikes like Flash Gordon
    And you're Peter Duncan; I gave you fair warning

    That is really good. We paid £900 for 7 nights in the doubletree and we were chuffed with that.
