There was a hair on the bed when I first pulled back the bed sheets. No temperature control, it was overly warm in the room. When I used the shower, it went back-and-forth between cold and very warm without me, touching me faucet. All in all, not a good experience. The front desk staff was very friendly..

The construction on elevators made it a 5-10 minute wait to go downstairs to access any amenities. Location is only 5-8 minutes from most transport so very convenient.

Let me start by saying the staff was phenomenal! Absolutely the best of the best! The hotel is older, but very well maintained! It is conveniently located to the theater district and downtown! So much is within walking distance! Really the only downside is that there’s no coffee maker in the room.

Check in staff very friendly, they offer complimentary small sodas and bags of chips until they're gone.However, I didn't think I would stay here again. Despite rooms being available, they were were going to charge a $75 early check in fee, so my young daughter and I had to go find somewhere to hang out for 45 more minutes to avoid it. The hotel is heading away from Times Square/Broadway towards Hell's Kitchen and didn't feel incredibly safe to walk to. The lights in the elevator were flickering and reminded us of the Tower of Terror. The room itself was worn and aged, with chipped future and a lumpy bed with only 2 pillows, but clean. The bathroom was incredibly small and aged, but also clean. The desk staff gave us a room on the top floor with what I'd consider the best view possible of the courtyard for the theater we were going to see a show at, so that was nice. Overall, property is just ok- worked for the night, but not the best.

We were really disappointed to learn that the beautiful bar featured on your website for this hotel (the primary picture shown in fact) is not even inside the hotel. Instead it belongs to the adjacent restaurant which can only be accessed through the hotel. But we couldn’t even enjoy it because it closed early the night we stayed there! We were forced to go back out in the rain to enjoy our evening cocktails. Feel like we were deprived of one of the major features advertised for this stay.
Additionally, your website states the the pricing includes all taxes and fees yet we were charged almost $23 in taxes and fees upon checkout.
The garage was also located 3 blocks away making it more difficult to walk the city streets with our luggage upon arrival and departure.
Overall We were very disappointed with almost every aspect of this stay and unless some form of reimbursement is tendered, we do not intend to ever stay there again nor use your website for our lodging needs.

We love the location, the size of the rooms, the fridge and microwave in the room. They still haven’t fixed the one main guest elevator since our last stay. Waiting for an elevator that isn’t already full is a nuisance - especially if you’re trying to get somewhere on time!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. We arrived at 11:00am before check-in and we were offered to have our room then for an additional $75.00. There wasn't a need as we would only be storing our bags and returning in the evening. Our room was nice, room 307. The refrigerator either wasn't working or was on a low setting(no way to make it colder). I put water bottles in it at night and in the morning, they had barely changed temperature. Had 2 double beds, only 2 pillows for each bed but we were able to find an extra in the closet. The bath towels are small, plastic cups and an old phone. Couldn't figure out to call the front desk so I just dialed the hotel on my phone. I asked about assistance getting a taxi in the morning for an early train. They advised me that the bell desk staff is gone from 11:00pm-7:00pm. I get it, it's off the main roads and they probably don't need a bellman on 24 hours. I called for an Uber instead. I would think about staying there again if I was coming into town for a Broadway show again. Liked how close it was to restaurants, Times Square and the theatres.

Clean and great deal. Stayed here many times. However, the toilet was broken and heater was banging like someone hitting it with a pipe. Biggest problem: there has been a long delay in fixing elevators that will cause people to not re-book.

Not only has one elevator been broken for the last year, but the main elevator kept showing Floor 6 lit up all day long. Never knew where you were arriving. Always on 6. There are small service elevators at the ends of the hallway, but not reliable either.

The room was clean. We had to call for towels every day. They did not clean the room. We had to ask for it to be cleaned. I went down and asked for a box of tissues, and they said I was going to have to go to the store. When talking to housekeeping they told me they are on site 24 hrs. and they could have just brought me a box. The front desk was not very friendly. They didn't have anyone to give you any information or help you with directions. They could get you a taxi and that was it. They didn't have any breakfast just coffee and tea till 10:00 am. The restaurant was a steakhouse. Nothing lite on the menu. But I will give it 4 stars for location. Which is why I picked this hotel.

The service is terrible. Not one doorman held the heavy doors open or helped us. The heater was broken in our room the first night and wouldn’t turn off on its own. I showed up at the front desk at 6am exhausted and was accused of lying because I didn’t come down in the middle of the night. Then she told me the maintenance person doesn’t arrive until 8am. She was so rude telling me we have to pack everything up, leave all our stuff with the bellman for the day, and check back at 4pm to see if there was a new room available. I suggested that when we were ready to head out for the day to have the person fix it. She responded, no, when we are back she would send someone up to show me how to use the thermostat. She just kept insisting “there should be nothing wrong with the room” rather than admit things can break in an old hotel.
I tired to add on late check out (paid) but was told I have to call the front desk before 7am OTD to see if it’s available.
The room was recently renovated and very clean. However, our two bed “Superior” was stocked with only two towels, one robe, and only sheets no blankets for two adults and kids. Are we supposed to share?
The windows are old, very drafty, and let all the noise in. The location was great. I appreciated the old NYC charm of the building.
I asked housekeeping for extra towels and blankets. They were the only plus of the hotel! Perks to them! They restocked the extra towels when refreshing our room, and worked around us and our day.

Staff was fantastic and the location is absolute fire. We did get stuck in the main elevator for a few minutes on our first day, so we stuck to the service elevators after that — though those could have a bit of a wait. The room itself was spacious, but the fridge didn’t get quite cold enough and the TV was definitely the smallest I’ve seen in a hotel in at least a decade. Still, overall, we’d absolutely stay here again. It’s steps away from great restaurants and all the theatres — close enough to Times Square for convenience, but far enough that you’re not overwhelmed by the chaos.

Cons
- Staff are quite rude, unhelpful, and money-hungry.
- Gym was very hard to find and can barely be called a gym. Includes a few 5 lb weights—great for toddlers!
- Elevators are small, slow, and take minimum of 10 minutes. They also don’t fit your luggage. Taking the stairs is faster, even with suitcases. If you have a family, plan on splitting up because there’s never enough room for more than one person.
- Beds and pillows are awful, rock-hard. Not to be picky, but the decor is motel-level.
- The non-ADA rooms do not have in-room heating or AC. Layering blankets and bulky space heaters are the solution to snowy nights. This was not advertised.
- Doors are thin, walls are thinner. We could hear the elevator all night.
- We received a different room than what we booked, and then somehow got moved into an even worse room.
- Ran out of tissues and soap.
- For some reason, the peephole in our door was loose enough that any passerby could peer through our door and into our room.
- Upon checkout you are charged with a “resort fee.” Not sure what this covers… maybe the complimentary luxury hot water and hot coco packets? Or maybe the stair usage fee?

Pros:
- The elevator takes so long, you can make lots of friends while waiting.
- You’re never alone! The thin walls make it easy to overhear interesting conversations. I hope Becky finds her wallet after that long night out!
- Free food in the fridge from the previous tenants.

This was a great hotel to stay in for your NYC trip. The staff was great and the location in proximity to Times Square is awesome yet just enough out of the way to be a little bit quiet. This was our first NYC trip and we were glad to be close to everything touristy yet close to the subway so we could explore the city. It’s not a major brand, but don’t let that scare you. It was very well ran.

Checked out this morning—this was my second time staying here. Unfortunately, it was a big disappointment compared to my stay seven years ago. The air conditioner was frozen over, leaving the room unbearably hot. One of the main elevators was out of service, and getting up or down took at least 15 minutes each time. On top of that, the hotel had an unpleasant smell. Overall, this stay did not meet expectations and was a letdown compared to my previous experience.
