Rooms were tiny. Bed was crammed in between 3 walls so that my husband had to crawl over me to get in or out of bed. We got no housekeeping or information about housekeeping. I ordered a cappucino in the restaurant and received a mini latte. The barista clearly did not know what a cappicino is. $23 is too much for a relatively meager breakfast buttet.

This is the first Citizen M I've been to and I was expecting some maybe problems based on other reviews but that was completely wrong. I loved this hotel! At 47 years old I've gotten used to 5 star hotels, to the point they rarely impress me anymore and while this hotel isn't that expensive, the experience was 5 star. I love the pop art design, I love the controlling the room with a iPad and picking the color of the lighting (I'm not a techie, it was easy), the staff was fantastic at customer service, the pool is lovely and the location is perfect because you are walking distance to 6th Street but not actually on 6th Street (I once stayed on 6th and it was way too busy and way too gritty for me). The room is smaller as people said, but there is plenty of room for a week's visit. There is a spot to put your suitcase and a small hanging area, and there's a large drawer under the bed. Had I been staying for long I would have unpacked and put all my clothes in that drawer would have worked nicely. Now, if you have 2 suitcases, it will be not as roomy. There is room to keep a second suitcase with you but it will be in the room not tucked away. But honestly if I did bring 2 suitcases I'd still choose to stay at Citizen M. The bed is in a nook, and I LOVED that. I was in the nook with a large picture window with a city view. It has been so long since i have had a hotel stay feel like an experience and this was an experience. I will stay at Citizen M whenever it's an option.

The hotel was great. Very clean and modern. All workers were very friendly. When I needed assistance with getting around and what to do they helped. The breakfast was convenient so I didn't have to leave the hotel early to go find something only thing I wish they would change up the hot food daily it was the same. The bar and the appetizers/small plates were good.

Sarah and I were very happy with our stay at CitizenM. We were celebrating our tenth anniversary together and although Sarah had never been here before,I had,and I'd requested a high up room with a view and your staff delivered by giving us a room on the 16th floor. I want to thank-you for that. It was special. We ate close by within walking distance and there is parking directly across the street. You're check in staff are exceptional. Thanks again CitizenM
