Was not impressed at all. I arrived and there was no person, I had to speak to a person over a screen. It felt very impersonal. on my window I saw mold. my bed sheets were a little dirty. worst part was my shower water was not even warm. I took a 5 min cold shower. Not what I paid for. I would ask for half of my money back but I know that wont be possible.

The gentleman at the desk was very nice and helpful. The room was fine, comfortable bed. Didn’t have hot water in the morning though and the floors were in rough shape as others have mentioned. Not bad for the price.

The manager was fine, the room stunk like mold/ mildew/ old urine. I won’t stay there again. We got up early and left. I thought it was a nice hotel until I got on the room.

Parking is plentiful. Beds were comfortable. Bottled water and granola bars are provided in the room. The bathroom needs to be cleaned a lot better, there was hair in the shower and on the wall. The pet area is very small and not enclosed for them to run around. Central Park does have an off leash area, so that is an option. The walls are thin and there are no curtains, only movable blinds, which let in the light from outside. There is no on site staff if you have issues, which I did. Trying to call the after hours number is a joke. I had issues with not having hot water in my room, the person I spoke with, didn't understand. Even the customer rep from Expedia couldn't get through. I had to pack up my stuff, walk out in the rain to go to the lobby and try to explain to the monitor that I didn't have hot water. After 30mins, I finally got issued another room, which I had trouble finding close to midnight cuz the room numbers weren't lit up. I would probably spend an extra $20-30 to stay elsewhere next time. Too many inconveniences.

Flooring in our room was peeling up. The doggie relief area was fake grass had patches of other dogs waste smeared into it, which was a huge bummer because that was one of the main reasons we booked. Besides the flooring coming apart, the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Did the trick, and for the price it was worth the stay. Wouldn’t recommend to travelers with dogs tho.
