6/10 Good
8 Aug 2023
If you like your independence stay here.
While the location is ideal I wouldn't recommend it for someone visiting NY for the first time. I had read the reviews where they mention how loud the nearby street noise was and although I have lived in NY before I had to sleep with earplugs (provided on the nightstand) from 3am to 6am because of how loud the street cleaning was on a Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. The hotel is ideal for someone staying by themselves who like their independence and don't want to be greeting by front desk staff. Although this hotel has a door man (someone just sitting behind a podium) not once did they greet us or open the door, hold the elevator door or simply give a smile. I'm guessing this staff position is more of a security front because I've never experienced such cold behavior at a hotel before. I stayed 4 nights and maybe on my last day the guard replied when I said "good morning" most of the time they avoid eye contact and simply do not interact with you. If you're expecting your room to be cleaned BEWARE they do not provide this service evehthough its a button option on the app but you quickly realize its just a button available for all their locations except the service is not provided (at this venue) why have a button that you think you can use just in case you want housekeeping to tidy up your room if the service isn't provided. Also you get one roll of toilet paper, 2 large towels, 2 hand towels and 2 face wash towels. Not sure how you would request more since there's no staff.
