Hotel Pennsylvania, New York City - Anyone Stayed there ?
I posted a few weeks ago asking for advice on "reasonable" hotels in
New York City. Thanks to those who replied. I stumbled across the Pennsylvania Hotel (www.hotelpenn.com) on 7th Ave at 33rd street. It seems pretty reasonable. $109 per night for a double bed, 2 people. The other bonus, is that my wife and I are taking the Amtrak from Vermont to New York City, and the Hotel Pennsylvania is right across the street from Penn Station. Before I book, I was wondering if anyone has had experience with this hotel, positive or negative. Thanks all ! Shawn --multiplaza.nl.nu-- |
