Avoid Carnegie Hotel on 56th Street
I really don’t recommend staying here. The rooms are much smaller than you’d expect, but the biggest issue is the hidden facility fee—$29 per night. Supposedly, it covers “food,” but in reality, it’s just chips and poor-quality coffee.
To make matters worse, the management was unhelpful. A friend I was traveling with couldn ’t eat the snacks because of health concerns (high cholesterol), and there were no real alternatives offered. The vibe overall felt cheap and poorly managed.
You end up paying extra for almost nothing. Definitely not worth it.
