HORRID hotel in New York
We had booked the Pennsylvania hotel in New York based on the advice of friends who told us it would be a good option for our low-budget trip. When we got to the hotel, right up front, we met a couple of Swedish tourist who were doing a police claim because they had been robbed IN THEIR ROOMS.....not a big surprise, as we were just too scared to be in our own rooms with our three small children: the hotel looked like an old prison, with paint falling off everywhere, bad smell, dirty rooms, stained carpets. When we told the frontdesk we thought we had been fooled by the hotel pictures in the net and demanded an upgrade, the hotel personnel told us they agreed with us, that the hotel was fooling tourist but there was nothing that could be done about it. We spent four hours trying to find a new hotel, as we refused to stay in such a terrible place, but we are very glad we did it. Pennsylvania, NEVER AGAIN!
