Kitchen in room should be updated,it was nice addition. The entire hotel needs updating, no air conditioner running in hallways or elevator, it was awful. No room service and front staff was slow and if you arrived half hour before check in 3pm you had to wait 1 hour before they could find a room,which was poor customer service and the pricey rates you pay is unacceptable for new york.

I am upset about the false advertisment. I paid for an upgraded suite with a large soaking tub. On the websit there was a picture and it was listed in the amenities specifically. When we got to our room we had only a shower. The front desk is not aware of any soaking tubs at all in the building. They tried to accomodate us and moved us to a room with a normal bath/shower combo. I would not have paid the extra upgraded room if i knew the tub didnt exist. I tried contacting Expedia with no reply. Writing this rebiew to warn other potential patrons.

5 STARS to all staff I encountered during my stay. All were warm, mature and showed me great hospitality. I had a 300sq ft room, large for NYC. The hvac is comparable to the noise of a split system. Room had microwave and fridge. Zero noise heard between the walls. For hotel ownership/senior leadership- This 200 room hotel can’t run on 2 small, 100 year old elevators. 1 was broken during my entire stay. The elevators can barely accommodate a luggage rack. The elevators make it hard for your staff to serve guests! Poor design choice of using wallpaper above bathroom vanity- stains became apparent. I was in room 2005, the hole drilled into the marble countertop (for the sink faucet) was off by 1 inch, leaving an unsightly gap. Lastly, “Anatonicals” toiletries is a very poor choice for a “luxury” tier hotel brand. Anatomicals is similar to drug store quality.
