PEOPLE WERE RUDE WAIT IS FOREVER STAFF WAS VERY RUDE BELLMEN WERE OK BUT DESK STAFF WAS TERRIBLE ROOMS WERRE NOT CLEAN WE HAD A NON-SMOKING ROOM THAT STUNK OF SMOKE FRIDGE DID NOT WORK NO-ONE CAME TO FIX IT
I took my daughter to NYC for her 21st birthday. We had a very good experience at the Skyline ... larger than normal size room you would find in a 3-star hotel in NYC. Clean and friendly staff. I would recommend they obtain a tea/coffee maker in the room.

Good Value For Manhattan
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/13/06
Was concerned after reading bad reviews but the price was right so we gave it a try & were pleasantly surprised. Check in was efficient. We arrived early morning but room wasn't available until 3 p.m. so bellhop checked our bags so we could spend the day sightseeing.
Room was very clean. Plenty of towels, etc. Size of room was adequate ...
This hotel stay was screwed up from beginning to end. First off there is no early check in, it's 3:00 pm (as we were informed by the very rude employee at the front desk, even when we came back at 2:45), even if there are rooms ready. We arrived at 10:30 after a 3 hour train ride and awaking at 4 a.m. Then we ...

Skyline stay was good
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/30/05

Great for groups!

This was a school trip and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this budget hotel. Rooms were large and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. Bell Captain was particularly helpful. Rooms were clean and showers excellent. Handy for Times Square.

There is a difference between the "new" and "old" tower. We were initially booked in the old tower for the 2003 holidays - then I requested an upgrade. It was a good enough experience that I am considering staying there again. The in-house restaurant was also quite nice.
