    Received a text message saying please text us with any questions. I texted the next day about the TV settings. They’re set on live HD mode and the movies look like live shows. No one replied back to my text message so I don’t believe that number you give is looked at by anyone Or they simply ignored my text message.

    Not about our stay that we didn't like. We did have two hiccups while we stayed (the noisy adjoining room by the elevator and our air conditioning stopped working one day). But in great customer experience, these concerns were very quickly addressed by the team. It is this sort of service that demonstrates a true level of care....quick and efficient, and nothing a problem.

    After lots of research we chose the Kimpton Theta Hotel, its combination of reviews, location, and interior style being part of our decision. Our room was spacious. (We changed rooms after our 1st night as we were by the elevator and was adjoining room and it was noisy, but the hotel team accommodated our request for a room change very promptly, in fact that next morning we moved) The hotel has a 'mix and mingle' over a complimentary glass of wine in the evenings. It was popular with ourselves and the other guests. They also had complimentary drip coffee to get you started in the mornings. We stayed for a week, and we begun to feel like it was home. The staff are the best here! friendly and relaxed. Did I mention the cool mid century interior styling!

    The last night of our stay we couldn't sleep due to the rowdiness of the people in the next room. They were extremely loud and it continued to about 2:00AM.

    The hotel was in close proximity to the theaters which was what we wanted. The room hotel was very clean and the staff was wonderful. It was a nice touch to have wine between 5-6:00. I would come back again!

    Room is relatively compact which is typical for NYC, only wished there were one or two chairs in the room to sit on, rather than having to sit in bed all the time. Not a big problem at all.

    Location is super convenient, close to Times Square and broadway. Room is clean, modern the beds are very comfortable. Most importantly the staffs are very helpful.

    The strike plate on the bathroom door was sticking out so sometimes the door had to be adjusted to close and the temp of the water in the shower would go from really hot to cool without moving the knob. (Rm 1212, did not report this issue b/c fairly insignificant)

    Location. Sq footage for value. Pleasant staff all around.
