Back a few weeks ago I took the Boy to New York City for a few days just to get away from life. I had chosen to stay at the Carlton Arms hotel located near Madison Square Park in Manhattan. This is a place I have wanted to stay at forever, each room painted a different way, This place is not a place for people who expect a ususal hotel experience.
We arrived after a very long bus ride, at around 10am. Upon enterting, and lugging my suitcase up the stairs to the first floor. We were quicky given a key to a room on the first floor. Two double beds, Own bathroom and a Unicorn painted on the walls greeted us.
I freaken LOVED this place.
It's 5 floors of what used to be an apartment building up until the 80s. Every wall in the entire place is painted in a different way, your eyes are going crazy trying to see everything. We ended up taking a walk though the whole building looking at all the different artwork.
This Hotel also has a pet cat, which for me, someone who is in love with Animals, loved. I actually ended up searching the whole hotel just to find the Kitty!
This place is basic, but its got character. The room was pretty big compared to other hotels in New York City I have stayed at, and it was clean and the bed was comfy.
I have fallen inlove with this place and I can't wait to go back to NYC so I can stay here and stay in a different room with different art.
