Can you help identify this NYC hotel?

I'm looking for a 1 bedroom suite in NYC for Aug 08 (8 nights) and have found the following on an apartment website. However, they don't tell you the name of the property, so you can't check it out on Trip Advisor or check for other prices. Some of the description from the website is below and I was hoping a local NYer or regular NYC traveller might know the property.

"A small and traditional style property with a wonderful selection of exceptional value for money New York serviced apartments. Very comfortable for short stay rentals in a superb central Midtown location.

All the apartments have been recently updated and include new bathrooms and the accommodations are very functional with a traditional style.

Superbly located in the heart of Midtown and the Theatre District, just steps the bustling Times Square and close to the Rockefeller Centre, Radio City Music Hall and the fashionable 5th Avenue shopping.
This very central and lively location offers the best of New York, with an abundance of places to eat and drink, local stores and shopping, popular attractions and nightlife - all on the doorstep.

Nearest Subway
At 49th and 6th Avenue - Just 1 block on the doorstep!
and 50th and 7th Avenue - 2 blocks"

well I looked at the website:

www.apartments2book.com/newyork7.htm

Nothing in the customer reviews or on the website indicates the actual apartment.

and I don't think it's a hotel, but rather an apartment building offering several different apartments for rent.

There may be hundreds of apartments in the building, and only a few let for short term rentals, so you'll need a review on the specific apartment you are trying to rent. The rest are likely inhabited by long term leaseholders.

Another of the "apartments" on offer was a suite at the Eastgate Tower (by Affinia). I could tell by the street name and photos. So, this made me wonder if the apartment in my OP might also be a hotel suite.

It looks good in the photos and is in the "budget category" compared to the "mid-market" category that the Eastgate Tower is in. However, it is always good to research reviews and check other prices if possible. It might be budget priced for a good reason.

Functional and traditional means very basic and old fashioned. Will be clean and in a good location - but don;t expect anything more than the absolute minimum.

Hi all. Thanks. Yes, traveler24, it is Radio City Apartments based on the photos.

I've been looking at the Eastgate Tower Suites, but think my friend is concerned it is too far East to be convenient.
