Marriott missed the mark

Overall, our experience was average. I was disappointed because I expected more from a 4-star Marriott hotel. On a positive note, bellhops were super! Concierge was knowledgable and quite helpful. Bedding linens were plush, clean and very comfortable. However, the room was quite small, especially for the oversized furniture and enormous desk chair (I had to move it constantly in order to maneuver around the bed). The only full-length mirror was on the inside of a closet door that only opened at a 45 degree angle because of a wall. The water pressure in the shower was awful- it took ten minutes to rinse shampoo/conditioner out of my hair (I can't imagine how long it would take if I had super thick or long hair). The maid staff was annoyingly persistent, and arrived very early to clean the rooms (between 8:00 and 9:00 a.m.) One morning the maid knocked three times within an hour, before we were ready to leave for the day. The maid staff also turned the A/C down to 64-65 degrees before leaving, and we nearly froze when we returned to the room each day. To end, our experience was not horrible, but it was less than most would expect from a 4-star hotel in New York City!

Manhattan trip

Very crowded lobby, but everything else fantastic. Location couldn't be beat, just a block and a half from the subway and many restaurants. Walk to the Theatre District. Great beds, clean bathrooms, fast elevator, flat-screen tv and a great little work-out facility.

NY Weekend of Fun

Overall, my stay was pleasant. The hotel was clean, the staff was very nice, and I loved the gym. The only thing that I did not like is that I could hear everything: my next door neighbors TV and conversations, and the people walking around the hall.

I liked that the hotel is closely located to the subway, and that I can get almost anywhere in NY from that location either by public transportation or private.

Nice hotel in a great location

Overall hotel was in a nice midtown location. Rooms clean and large by New York standards. No mini bars but a refrigerator. No vending machines only ice. All in all would definitely stay there again. Hotel is old but renovated. Liked the old wood paneled lobby. Linens and bedding are upgraded and nice.

best trip

I went to NYC to see a friend and have a vacation. The hotel provided me with the best location to see all of the sights and sounds of the true city. Even my friend enjoyed the hotel. The staff are very curteous and helpful. I would love to return to the same hotel on every trip into the city.
