Fair deal
I booked here knowing the reviews were average and the hotel was older and needing refurbishing. That's what I found but it was clean and staff was pleasant. A request to replace 2 burned out lights went unfilled. I liked the location for this trip. Internet service was very lacking and should be included like most lodging places today.

Hotel Pennsylvania
The hotel smelled smoky and musty. The air conditioner in the room wasn't anything to write home about. The check in line on Wed, May 9 @ 5:30 PM was very long with only 3 staff members. The hotel does know in advance the heaviness of check ins for planning.

Check-in staff were brusque and House Keeping appeared just ok. Rooms are showing the signs of age and could use a fresh coat of paint at the very least...

Classic, good location
I'd stay here four times, all great. The best location in the city, if you take the Air Train from JFK to Jamaica and then the train to Penn Station you'll find it right across the street. Just steps away from Times Square, Empire State Building, and the main Subway Station in the city. In the lobby if you look for Maria at the front desk she'll treat you very well, she's great. The price is perfect for a spot like this. When I travel I'm looking for a nice bed and a bathroom good enough to spend my days, I'm not looking for luxury. If I would want that, I would stay at home instead.

My Stay.
No internet was available. I asked for non-smoking and it still smelled like smoke. Was charged by hotel as well. Called during work hours to fix charge and accounting office was still closed.

Don't do it!!!
If your thinking of going to this hotel, don't do it!!! I'm not a picky person at all so when i saw it had some bad reviews I thought they were just exaggerating. We tried to check in early and they wouldn't let us, so we came back at 2. We waited an hour in line to check in. Once we finally got up to check in, it took them about ten minutes. They took both both our id's even though my husbands name wasn't on the reservation, he stared at them for another five minutes. Everyone in line was complaining. The staff didn't seem to care at all. The room was the tiniest hotel room I've ever seen, the paint was peeling off the walls, the room was very outdated. The location isn't even that great unless your taking the train. There are hotels for the same price a few blocks away, stay away from Hotel Pennsylvania!!!
