Handlery Union Square Hotel
Great location. Nice, older hotel. The concierge, Judi, was very helpful. Only one elevator was working and that just wasn't enough for the amount of guests. Our room was okay; nothing fancy but comfortable. We couldn't get the a/c or heat to move off 68 degrees. The shower was tiny and not easy ...
