Purchased superior room through Expedia that said included jetted bath. Not the case. Was offered room with mini-bath that I wouldn’t fit in so declined and jetted bath room $30 US more per night. Expedia offered coupon to compensate. Hotel ambivalent. Air con noisy but housekeeping very friendly and accommodating. Citibike vouchers only work if u have wifi at all times, not Just opportunistically. Nice bar and lounge area. Location was good to get to where we wanted to go. One robe was in room instead of two. Not sure why but didn’t worry about it. Bed comfortable.

Close to all amenities, but very noisey as walls very thin. I could hear every ph conversation. My room was right across from the housekeeping room. Staff very noisey early in the morning, talking to each other, bumping trolleys into walls, having loud ph conversations until 9pm some days. At night constant building works around the hotel, impossible to sleep without ear plugs. Room spacious and clean, mattress had a big groove in it. Despite me making staff aware of it, it did not get changed. I was there for 14 days. Bar and restaurant staff very friendly, food very good. Had to pay $25 resort fee each day, so was forced to eat at hotel, very limited menu for long stays.

What a lovely and well-located hotel! Room was small but very nice. The staff were friendly, especially one of the waiters in the restaurant. The vouchers for the bar/restaurant were great! Our only complaint was that the bathroom door in our room was broken. We had to ask twice, but after the second time, somebody was sent up promptly to fix it. Wait-time for breakfast varied day to day. On our last morning, there was too long of a wait, so we went somewhere else. Overall we really enjoyed our stay!

This was our second time stayed at this hotel when we visit NYC. Our first time experience was pleasant that’s why we decided to stay here this time again. However this time the experience didn’t go so well this time. First, the check in staff is not friendly at all. And just want to get over with it. After we get our room, the room is noisy due to the flag outside be hitting the windows and make large sound. We called the reception so many times for hours and no one pick up our call. The next day, when we check in for the breakfast, we waited at the waited area, and the staff just forget our waiting number and been calling people who arrived later than us to get seated. We waited more than 45 min when there was only four group waited in front of us. When we notify the staff that our number got missed the staff even accuse us that we didn’t come when he call the number. We were seated right beside the entrance and been listen to each number he called. He didn’t even apologized that he wrote the wrong number on the waiting sheet. Very disappointed for the service here. However, the good side of this hotel is that they provide some voucher that u can use for the bar on first floor or dry cleaning service. We went to the bar on first floor. It’s a little bit hard to find a spot during weekend. But the staff is superior. Super friendly and helpful.
