Sufficient and no frills
Had a smoothe check in. They didnt have a small shop for incidentals and other toiletries which was a shame. The room was decorated well and comfortable. The toilets are very very low. The windows are thin so you'll hear everything outside. There was an actual space heater plugged in on the floor which was very strange. It also happened to be the one that was recalled due to fire risk and was on the national news only 2 days prior. Overall not bad, sufficient is the word I would use but the price was aligned with that. I chose this hotel because of the location where my meetings were.

4/10 Fair

Overpriced and underwhelming. Will not return.
Was going to give them 3 stars overall but then they never came and cleaned my room on my last day I was there after being gone for 12 hours all day. I had food in my trash that I was hoping could be taken out. The housekeeping also would really just make the bed and change the towels. When I called the front desk at 9pm upon arriving back, I was told that housekeeping wasn't able to come at that point and they would send someone up with clean towels. They would not fold up any clothes or organize any bathroom items which has been pretty standard in most of my other hotel experiences. They would take a night shirt that was thrown on the bed, make the bed and then throw the night shirt right back on top of it, not even stopping to fold it up and leave it neatly on the bed. It felt a bit careless and made me feel like they probably weren't cleaning the rest of the room very well either. The room was also dark. I booked a standard queen room, and my windows were facing into a light well so it got very little sunlight. There was a loud heater that made the room kind of noisy to sleep in. On top of that, they charge you an amenity fee every day that feels unjust based on how they don't even offer you coffee in room, or a carafe with any water. A few pros amongst all of that. The room is nicely designed, as is the rest of the hotel itself. The bathroom shower had nice water pressure and heated up quickly.

Overall the stay was nice and went as expected, except for an argument in the hallway at 2am between a disgruntled couple that ended up with a call to the cops.

This place has gone downhill
Bed was terribly uncomfortable. Loud music each night till after 2. Could hear neighbors having sex. Thermostat was malfunctioning and the room was so hot we had to open the windows in January. Sink faucet was constantly leaking, was loose, and one of the valves was installed backwards. Shower head was damaged and spurted most water pressure away from you. Lights were flickering. Window blinds were broken. I stayed here 2 years ago and really enjoyed it. But it seems they just aren't maintaining the hotel well.

Convenient and Beautiful
The Hotel is conveniently located near the empire state bldg and subway station. We had a very small room with double bunk beds for a family of 4, but the property is beautiful old vintage structures. Daily parking is expensive at $60. Better leave it outside and pay the meter. TY
