Comments:

Prose

• "The hotel rooms have been closed since 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City." -> "The hotel rooms were closed in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City." to prevent MOS:CURRENT problems
• "quote machines" What is this? Is there a wikilink to send readers to?
• "to set aside about 5 percent of their space" should this be five per MOS:NUMERAL?
• "that the interior "pleasingly anonymous," -> "that the interior was "pleasingly anonymous,"
• In Note a, it should have a citation at the end.

Sources

• Earwig does not bring up any concerns.
• In ref 94, it should probably just say "New York / Staff" for the authorship.

Spot check

• Version checked: [1]
• Sources checked: 6, 7, 16, 26, 47, 28, 98, 99
• No concerns

Image

• For "Crowne Plaza Times Square Exterior.jpg" (first image in the infobox) the summary says that the author is "Crowne Plaza Times Square" who claims to be the copyright holder of the picture. Is this information correct?
• Other images do not cause concerns.

I am going to place this on hold until the above are addressed. Please ping me if there are any questions. Z1720 (talk) 23:21, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

@Z1720, thanks for the review. I have addressed all the prose issues and removed the author from ref 94, since the author is unknown (and thus a staff author is implied). The uploader of the infobox image is actually Cherishgallant, but for some reason their username didn't show up in the file description. Nonetheless, I've replaced the infobox image with a daytime photo. – Epicgenius (talk) 00:28, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

My concerns have been addressed. I will promote this article. Congradulations. Z1720 (talk) 00:32, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
