perfect location, needs tlc
We had booked this hotel as part of a package through Expedia. The location can not be beat, walking distance to everything and a great map of Manhattan with subway info that we used daily.
A bit of a minor mix up with our room at first as was suggested we move from a small queen to a larger double bed room away from elevators and agreed, but then found the room was right at the elevator, so the bellman got on his phone and found a room further down the hall which was just fine. The hotel is in need of some fresh paint and cosmetic work, that would really make a difference. There are no real extras and found it to be literally a place to store our luggage, shower and sleep. This being said, our room was cleaned daily and comfortable and we would leave by 10am and not be back til after midnight and was good to come back to a clean room. Any staff we spoke with was courteous and helpful. No wi-fi in room but did not have any problem using in the lobby when needed, tho would be a nice extra as well as a fridge in the room and maybe an extra chair, desk there seemed to be more in the way then useful, 2 chairs and a small table would have been more comfortable. Did not eat in the restaurant and a lounge would be nice to enjoy a drink after a day on the streets.
