New York City, Part One...

So I thought I'd start off with a few pics of our hotel room - PLEASANTLY surprised. Our hotel was built in about 1902 or so, but recently remodeled, and it is lovely. Plus, customer service always makes the day. The Mansfield has a little of everything. When we arrived at about 10 a.m. after a long redeye flight and an even longer ride into the city (in a towncar!:) they unfortunately informed us we'd been upgraded - to a suite! Bummer. Then they let us check in about 4 hours early, gave us a great recommendation for breakfast, and gave us a free cappucino. Love this place. Check out the yummy period details. Plus there's an amazing library downstairs with a fireplace, leather chairs, LOTS of books, and free espresso 24 HOURS A DAY!!! What's not to love about that? More to come!




Literally the tiniest sink I've ever seen. When you lean over to wash your face, all the water goes right on the floor because the sink is too little to catch it!
