Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I usually stay here when traveling for shows. The staff have always been the best people. The rooms are comfortable and the location is perfect. With a subway that gets you anywhere, including the airport, seconds away and the close proximity to any theatre it is perfect. I wish I would have been able to snag it for my next go around, but I will be back.

To start, i had reserved a balcony room, paid a little extra. When i got to our room the balcony door was screwed shut and so dirty we couldn’t see out of it at all so we had 0 view of anything, i went to the front desk and they offered me an upgrade for 50 dollars but i wanted what i had booked, they continued to say balconies were being worked on and not accessible to anyone…so i went to my friends room who booked the same room and she had a balcony to go out on and the glass was clean enough to look out. When i got back to my room i realized we had no towels, the room door had to be slammed shut and open if not the door would stay open. We also had no remote for the air conditioner which would have been fine if i could open the door to the balcony. The table in the room was also broken and we couldnt use it and we also didnt have a chair. Location was terrific but we’re planning our next trip for a hotel down the road a little More expensive but at least ill get what i pay for and not offered to pay for an upgrade that probably would be less quality than what i thought i reserved. Also front desk only answered once when we called down and on the second night the towels i went down to get were gone, no one answered the front desk so i went down and grabbed them myself and took the loud creaky elevator back up. Has potential to be an amazing place if someone just took care of it.

This place is a total dump. Banged up furniture, dusty everything and a half inch space around the bathroom sink that can only be described as an OCD nightmare. The ice smelled, windows were filthy, bunk beds from HELL and a teeny tiny warm refrigerator. The elevator literally sounds like it’s coming through the ceiling and takes 5-20 minutes to get to you. We spent $100 at another place the last evening and it was night and day. Gross, don’t stay here, please.

Absolutely disgusting property. Dirty old, no service. This place is a dump. No hot water, heat in room on full blast and could jot turn off. It was 90 degrees in the room. There’s a club downstairs that has base thumping till 4am Saturday and Sunday nights…no one at the desk to complain to…not even the room phone worked. This is a hostel at best

I am not typically a complainer, by any means, but the hotel was not representative of what was advertised. Our first room had sticky spills all over the floor, marks on the bed cover, and piles of dust everywhere, broken phone and no lighting. Upon being moved to a second room, it was still filled with thick layers of dust behind the night tables and the rest of hotel was not what was shown on the photos at all. They are in the midst of a renovation, which is fine, but definitely was not being cleaned accordingly. The elevators were much, much older and everyone was nervous about being on them based on the awful noise coming from the shaft and the rickety ride that made everyone question their safety.

We had the family room which was nice to spread out, but was by the elevators which are noisy, when working. Most of the time we were here at least one was not working. There were no wash cloths.
