Mini Suites of Minetta

There are neither the advantages of a hotel nor those of an apartment. The office is located about 5 minutes walk away and is supposedly open between 10.30- 5.30 each day - but I waited until 10.45 and no show. Too bad if you arrive outside these hours. So, there are none of the facilities of a hotel which would be less of a problem if you had apartment facilities. I spent time in two different apartments. The first one had two bowls, two plates, two cups but only one fork and knife. The second one had two forks and spoons but only one cup. Both had an espresso machine and a hotplate but absolutely no saucepans to put on it.

The first apartment I was given was on the ground floor and had a window looking into a courtyeard with NO blind or curtain. The spa malfunctioned and I coudn't turn it off. The night attendant moved me to another apartment at 10. 30 pm. Next day, I had

problems with access because the codes were not adjusted: yet another walk around the block to the office.

Look elsewhere.

I loved this hotel. It's a great location. The rooms were very nice, comfortable beds, we had a refrigerator, microwave, wine glasses, and a nice bath tub. There was no shower curtain and the towel service left something to be desired, but on the whole, it's a great place.
