The Virgin Hotel New York was pretty good. This was my second stay in the hotel. My first stay was three years ago when the hotel first opened. The room was certainly showing the wear of heavy use. Clogged drain, loose fixtures and door handles, but otherwise clean and comfortable.
The location of the property is great. Located in NoMad you're a short walk to Madison Park or Times Square or several Subway options too. It's also about a five minute walk to Penn station for easy access to Newark Airport or long distance trains. Location is one of the main reasons I like this hotel.
I did bring the slow shower drain to the attention of the front desk and it took to days for them to address and fix. So that left me with two days of standing in shower filth, For the price of this hotel, this isn't something I should have to deal with.
I'm also vehemently opposed to resort fees in hotels, particularly when the amenities they claim to be for are either not used by me or not available to me. For example, the pool doesn't open until May 15th. This was too bad. But really, just include this fee in the price of the room. Resort fees are truly obnoxious. They're the baggage fees of the hotel world.
Ultimately, I would stay at this property again, but they need to keep a closer eye on the smaller details because this hotel is charging the prices of a 4+ star hotel, but the rooms are headed toward 3 star level.
