Westhouse Hotel, situated in the heart of Midtown West on 55th Street between 7th and Broadway, is a classic example of why Manhattan is still an incredibly special place to be.

However the same can be said about how amazing the experience can truly be upon check in through check out. I stayed there over the weekend and was impressed by all of this… and more.
