Terrible Third Time
This is the 3rd time in 18months I have stayed here, always for work and it's getting worse each trip. It started as a reasonable business hotel in a good location and has now become a punishment for people staying here.
In my earlier reviews I complained about the expensive in-room wifi (this should be free!) and the outrageous charge to hold your bags once you check out.
This set the precedent of decline and on this trip I discovered that the minibar has disappeared. It's now a $35 charge to have this 'service' and the tea and coffee facilities have also disappeared. Frankly this is a disgrace. 
I will never ever stay here again. There are so many other hotels in New York that treat you like a paying hotel guest rather than a lodger who is late with the rent.
In addition, the bathroom suite is old and hasn't had the mould cleaned properly around the bath. The decor is dated and in places broken and needing secured to the walls and floor.
