TWICE monkeys are warned that glassware is not allowed in the pool area. But it gets better. See the rest of the pictures. Continue reading “Pool Rules”
Location, location, location. Add in a lot of class, over-the-top amenities, art, excellent service, and some bling and you’ve got a pretty good idea of what this great hotel in the middle of the Big Apple has to offer.
