36 year old female with a luxury budget, traveling for leisure
Our room type: King non-smoking. We received a room on a higher floor far away from the elevator as requested. We reserved through the website and got their best internet rate.
Pros: It’s in an excellent midtown location, within a block of the subway station, and several food options nearby. It had a super comfy bed and the cookie was a nice touch. The A/C worked well for unseasonably warm late summer. They had friendly and efficient service from the concierge and bellhop although the reception service was not so good.
Cons: Although the décor looked as if it were updated recently, the carpet in the room & especially in the hallways had seen better days and reeked of smoke. We had an interior facing room, which probably cut down on the street noise a bit, but unfortunately gave us a lovely view of the building next door’s broom closet. We didn’t try the restaurant as it seemed a bit expensive, but there was a very good deli next door and the W’s restaurant just a block away.
The room had an average size bedroom area, but a very small bathroom. I’m a small person at 5’2” and 120 lbs, but I could sit on the loo, wash my hands, use the towel rack and turn on the shower all at the same time. And it was impossible to do any of the prior mentioned while keeping the door open. There was no bathroom ventilation whatsoever, so even with the door wide open while bathing, the steam collected on the ceiling and condensed huge droplets even several hours later. The bathroom or shower curtain consistently smelled musty and even the paint and wallpaper was peeling from the excessive moisture.
The in-room internet via television was circa 1992, I think. It would be faster & more legible to check your emails from your phone. The keyboard failed, so we called a tech who came immediately but who could not fix the problem, even with a new keyboard. The charges for the in-room internet were credited, although we had to ask twice.
The President and some very important foreign dignitaries were staying in hotel across the street which made getting a cab impossible due to the street closures and high security. The registration staff seemed familiar with the President’s security measures while visiting, but failed to warn us that we’d have trouble leaving/entering the area when asked about getting a cab later that day. When the time came to leave for our international flight, the bellhop was as helpful as he could be under the circumstances, but ultimately we had to walk six blocks with luggage to finally find a car (for a heftier fee than regular taxis) to take us to the airport, it was very stressful.
Unless they lower the cost to stay significantly, I can’t imagine why I’d return to this hotel. Especially when there are so may other options, the W one block away was only $85 more per night!
