A disappointment...
If you have been to New York before you will know that most Manhattan hotels are usually old and overpriced but I had stayed in this hotel when it was part of the Radisson chain and it was a pleasant experience.
In this visit I can understand why they've pulled out. I stayed in one of the larger rooms (with two double beds and two bathrooms) and although the rooms have a fair size for New York they urgently need renovation!
The reasons behind my rating:
The bathroom basin and bathtub were cracked and filled with all sort of materials which where fading in many colours.
The room aircon was maintaining a temperature it wanted despite the temperature controls in the room.
The wireless Internet had a premium of almost $15 per day(!!!!!).
They charged $2 per bag that you wanted to leave after check-out! I have been in tens of cities and countries, this is the first place to ask for payment for this service! Unbelievable!
Don't pay for breakfast, there are tens of places just a couple of blocks away.
Location-wise it is very convenient as it is close to a metro-station and walking distance of all the main attractions.
For the money this hotel charges per night and the service they provide I have to say that I will not be staying there again.
