Rooms are offensively small
My husband and I were in town since we're moving there. So, this hotel stay was really just for utility--were weren't looking for a scene... but we were SHOCKED. As New Yorkers, you expect a small-ish room. This room was crazy. It was literally just enough room for a full (not a queen) sized bed. There was really nowhere to put your things, and the i'm not quite sure where to start on the bathroom---but...why would any hotel compromise a standing shower? The shower was legitimately cut in half... a standing shower--which leads to the floor getting completely soaked. Honestly, I have no idea how people really fit in there. 
On top of everything- i would ask for a room FAR away from the elevators. The WHOLE night, we heard the elevators going up and down. As it passed our room, it was so loud I thought a bomb was going to explode. 
I am a pretty saavy traveler, and don't usually have many complaints (in fact, this is my first hotel review)... and I was SHOCKED by our experience at $179/night. 
Only pro- the bar was Ok. Meaning that there were people there... and there a bunch of restaurants and the location is decent. 
Overall--avoid this place!
