You cannot beat the location as it is just a few blocks from Times Square and not far from Central Park, museums, 5th Ave. Small rooms but very clean and it was quiet as well. You have the Broadway shows all around you. Will definately stay there again when going back to nYc.

Not recommended.

First, the location almost next door to the Eugene O'Neil Theater and across the street from the Ambassador Theater, and just one block from Broadway, is excellent. But, I found that to be the only redeeming feature about my stay at this hotel. My room was tiny with what seemed to just about two feet on either side of the full bed. The decor ...

i didnt even have to go there to see how bad the srvice was. I was calling around for hotel prices and these people were the most rudest people. IF YOU DONT LIKE YOUR JOB QUIT!!
My husband and I generally just look for a clean place to sleep and shower when we stay in the city. The Mayfair provides this in a terrific location just steps away from Time Square and smack in the middle of the Theatre District. The lobby and halls have a bygone era feel with head shots of famous Broadway stars of yesteryear. A very friendly ...

never stay here
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/29/07
The Mayfair website shows a picture of a smiling door man greeting you. Ha! No one smiles there and there's no door man.
First the good, extremely comfortable kingsize bed and an a/c unit that worked, our room was actually cold. Both are definite pluses. The room was small and really there was not enough room to open up two suitcases. The ...

The Best Deal in Town
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/19/07
I disliked the small and slow elevator.
I loved the room, small and quaint and cozy. The bed was wonderful to sleep on. Staff very courteous. Hotel very convenient to everything you want to walk to. Definitely will stay here again when visiting New York.

Would stay again
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/06/07
It reminded us of the hotel in Paris we stayed in. The Good: location - from JFK cost $7 using public transit (5/train & 2/subway which drops you 2 blks from the hotel (take the "E" to the "L7"); convenient to: Broadway, Times Square & subway; Room - small but clean, bath clean, simple decor (you are only sleeping & ...
The hotel was very old and the room was tiny..which I expected, but was okay because we weren't in the room very much. It is definetely not a good choice if you are claustrophobic. The room was clean although it had a funny smell. The bathroom looked like it has been renovated, but the rest of the room seemed old. They offer free internet, ...
The room was small, as well the bathroom. But we wasn't in NY to sleep or stay in the room especially being a half block from Times Square. The staff was very friendly and helpful. It also was nice that my wife (who has allergies) had a chose of feather or non-feather pillows.
I just recently stayed at the Mayfair last week and overall my stay has been comfortable. The rooms may be a little small, but it was very clean. The price we paid for the room was very cheap for it being in the heart of the manhattan. Subways, Timesquare, everything is close by. The staff were wonderful and I will consider staying there again on my next trip to NY.
