Bad experience, I can't recommend this hotel.
I guess in New York the 4 star hotel rating system is different than the rest of the world. To me this would be a 2 star hotel. Prior to our stay I read the hotel was under construction, so I called and I was told that construction would be completed prior to our arrival. This was a lie. The lobby was unfinished an still in mid construction. The room smelled and had long black hairs all over the bathroom floor, the blinds were broken, there was a radiator in the room. There was a disgusting stain on a the bed cover. Our final bill had a $200.00 error. The person at the counter was rude and claimed that this was because we changed our reservation. That did not happen. He fixed it but was rude. I asked for a late check out because our car was set to arrive an hour later. He said if it is passed a certain time they charge you for a half day. 
The location was great, but I would never stay there again and I cannot recommend this hotel.
Two of the staff were nice.
