clean rooms excellent bed, staff incredibly helpful and kind. only draw back was we had a two double room for two people who dont care to see each other in the bathroom. you must consider two people sharing a room might be brothret and sister or father and daughter. perhaps add tinting to the bathroom glass in those particular rooms to increase yopur patrons comfort.

The PUBLIC Hotel places far more emphasis on its restaurants, bars, and café than on the actual hotel experience. With noticeably limited staff throughout the property, it’s difficult to get timely or consistent customer service. The rooms also lack many standard amenities like bathrobes, slippers, body lotion, and other basic toiletries that you would expect from a hotel in this price range. Overall, the stay felt underwhelming, and I wouldn’t recommend the property, especially when there are many other hotels in NYC that offer a more comfortable and guest-focused experience.

The hotel doesn’t do a typical check-in and you are to check-in yourself through a computer. As a result we never received any of the gold status VIP or learned about what the hotel offered and what we had access to that we were paying an access fee for. There is also a night club in the basement of the hotel and if you want your room on the lower floor to be shaking, well then this is the place for you. If not maybe find another hotel.
