Times Square convenience and great staff!
The Casablanca is very convenient to Times Square and midtown Manhattan. The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly and our room was a decent size for a boutique hotel in NYC. It was also surprisingly quiet, although we were not on the street side of the hotel. The rooms are a little dated and our floor creaked a bit, but my wife and I would certainly stay here again. Gregory was a particularly pleasant person to interact with.

Great location only a few steps from Times Square. Short walk to the subway, restaurants and theaters. Staff was attentive and room was clean. Rooms were quiet with only hallway noise. The room was warm and the window air conditioner was awkward to use being partially blocked by the odd sliding windows. The breakfast was enough to get going for the day with adequate seating and some views from the windows. It was too cold to eat outside but there were a few tables available

NYC Marathon
This hotel was great! We were in town for the marathon and wanted to be close to the bus route. This was a short walk to bus in the morning. I was worried about noise in the evening but there was none. The staff was wonderful. Very helpful and friendly. Would absolutely recommend.

Just too New Yorkish
We had never been to NYC before, so were not quite sure what to expect. All the reasons we chose the Casablanca were true to form. It was exactly what the reviews said about it, and unfortunately that was the issue. We chose it for the location, being so close to Times Square. That was my mistake. We had a front facing room that we could hear all the noise through the A/C unit in the window. The hotel was very cute and quirky, just like we wanted. Staff were attentive, and the Continental breakfast was much more that I thought would be available.
