I stayed at an older hotel in Manhattan this past week.
The room at the Roosevelt was much smaller that what I am used to staying in when I travel for business. Although the size threw me a little initially, I found that I really liked it. The scale of the room was very human and it had everything I needed close at hand. By the third day I found myself wishing my house were smaller.
The hotel was pretty nice. I love being within walking distance of my destination and it fit that requirement neatly. The only complaint I had about the hotel was the speed of the elevator. It might take 15 minutes to get to the lobby if you picked the wrong time of day. The first day I would pass on elevators that seemed crowded. By the last day I would cram myself in, no matter how many people were already in the elevator, since I didn't know when the next one might make an appearance.
