The staff was very friendly and helpful. Bell boys helped sort, pick, transport luggage so conveniently and front desk answered every inquiry with utmost patience and cheer. Maintenance promptly fixed the draft and made sure the room was warm. Lighting is low enough for quiet reading. Building has several places to lounge and could be used better with decor and activities.

Looooved our stay at the Freehand. Everyone was super friendly. Our room was very quiet and felt like a little bungalow in the city. Loved the Bluetooth speaker and original art. I mean for the price, you are really getting a chill spot in an excellent location.

Lovely rooms, nice ambiance, wonderful restaurant for breakfast on the 1st floor. On the negative sides: no bottle of water, glasses, kettle, coffee nor tea provided in the rooms, but also the sounds of fire engines and police cars on the street will wake you up at night. Still highly recommended!!!

This hotel was perfect for our last minute visit to NY at a very busy time of year. We love the location (quieter area than Times Sq but has everything you need...food, access to subway/bus, shopping, parks, Christmas markets, etc)
