Good location if working on Wall Street - otherwise, stay away
I am a business traveler and go to NYC nearly every week and have stayed at this hotel 5 times. I'm finally done with it!
First stay, the television and HD connection didn't work and the shower door was missing the plastic (?) to seal the water from seeping out. Soaking wet floor as a result. Second stay, cold shower. Third stay, so many tourists that pack the tiny restaurant for their "free breakfast buffet" that I could barely move. Also, they ran out of eggs. As a business traveler I truly don't have the time or patience to fight for a mediocre buffet. I've let my free coupons go unused and would much rather hit up a local place on my way to the office.
The elevators are a nightmare. As a result, I request a room on a low floor so I can take the stairs. However even the stairs are not always your best bet! The stairwell is incredibly narrow - so narrow that two people could not possibly fit.
The staff is friendly and it's a convenient location, but that is all this place has going for it.
