Cold Shower!!!
I know that NYC is an expensive city but I believe there needs to be certain standards to uphold to justify charging upwards of $300 per night, no matter what city.
The fact that my wife and I had to put up with cold showers one morning, is just plain ridiculous, given the money we were paying. We put up with the fact that the room was tiny, the cable TV didn't work and the bathroom had absolutely nowhere to hang anything, but seriously, cold showers when you're being charged $300 a night???? Come on!!!
What's worse, the response from the Front Desk was "Well these things happen" and there was no offer whatsoever of any compensation.
NYC is a great city, but was runied by my experiences in this hotel. The fact that my sister got a great deal at The Warwick Hotel on W57th St (via priceline.com), a wonderful 4 star establishment at almost half the price, just goes to show how ridiculously overpriced this hotel is.
Never again!!!
