Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
I chose this hotel because it was tied to a great airfare pkg. The room was clean, the staff I encountered was friendly but the negative reviews regarding noise, elevators, breakfast, and the windows I read prior to my visit were accurate. First off, I stayed on the 8th floor and the windows were absolutely filthy - bummer because the view was great. I know it's challenging keeping them clean but these haven't been cleaned in ages. Noise - the room doors are like paper with a big floor gap so you hear everything happening in the hallway. Elevators - there are 2 banks but only one works - barely. I stayed 4 days and not once did I have a wait less than 10-15 mins - each time the door opened it was full. I even just walked down the 8 flights because I had to be somewhere. Not fun. Breakfast. Honestly, the food options were decent and the amount seemed to try and keep up but the amount of guests vs the size of the dining space is not OK. Packed like sardines and people acting like this would be the only meal they were having all day - families taking PLATES and PLATES overflowing with bacon and sausage at one time. Not cool. Again, never had a chance to eat down there due to lack of room - even at 7am. Ate once in my room. If you're on a budget ok or like me, a former NYer who was just in town for a quick visit, but you may want to rethink if you want a better experience closer to things. This place is way over almost to 11th Avenue so it's about 10-15 min walk to the subway.

HORRIBLE STAY - do NOT stay here ! Hotel room was dirty - elevators stopped working multiple times - myself and a family member got stuck inside elevators at different times - overheard multiple guests complaining that they got stuck as well. Unprofessional staff members and lack of management staff. Breakfast was awful and there isn’t sufficient seating- very chaotic. Worst hotel stay ever !!
