Nice, but unorganized.
They are not aware of the contents of the text of their automated arrival communications, provided by links in their emails. On checkour . I had a lengthy conversation their desk person, but later the same person called and were unaware I had checked out over two hours earlier. Please do not charge me the $250 late checkout fee. Since I dropped off my key with a human being and left at 9:30am.

Very spacious rooms. It doesn’t feel like a hotel, you get a fully functional apartment if you pick one of the suites which is nice. Very quiet, no thru foot traffic noise. Great staff, everyone was very nice and it’s connected to a restaurant.

Great location with friendly helpful staff
An historic hotel in a perfect location for exploring and enjoying the old city. I seldom take time to write a review but I truly enjoyed my time at Morris House!

We had a perfect weekend stay at the Morris House Hotel. The historic house is charming. Our room was a 2 room suite with a terrace overlooking a beautiful courtyard. The location couldn’t be better - just half a block from Washington Square Park. Highly recommended
