10/10 Exceptional
Great for families
Likes: Mint House occupies a space (floors 2-6)that is otherwise a condominium in FiDi. To that end, there are many room configurations, and we stayed in 2 different ones when part of the family joined for the second half of our stay.
Our first room was large with an amazing bathroom and a functional kitchenette. The second was huge, had a complete kitchen with full sized refrigerator and range, but more dated bathroom. Both were equipped with a lovely pour over coffee service with delicious Black Fox Coffee, which has a store front in the building’s lobby.
It was hard to gauge how big the hotel was, as there was always only one person at the reception desk. But everyone that I interacted with was so friendly and helpful. Despite what seemed to be a smaller operation, when we called for extra towels and creamer, each time house keeping responded really fast.
Bottom line: Mint House was a great stay and amazing value. It’s close to Fulton Station with lines to access all parts of the city, and waterways to access other boroughs too, making FiDi a good place to make home base for a NYC vacay.
Dislikes: Was a bit hard to find entrance to the building
