The website sais nothing about luggage storage so I tried calling the front desk and they didn’t answer. I Googled it and found Reddit said they did have storage, so I made plans for it. The night before my trip I got a text message from them that said no luggage storage, and a “virtual” front desk.. I remade my travel plans. When I arrived there was a man behind the front desk, paying atteto his twittering, and when I asked, he said there was luggage storage from 9:00am to 3:00pm. I told him this contradicted their message. He said, oh yeah, someone needs to fix that. The next morning the front desk was empty.

Could be better, but cheap

No doubt this was cheap for mid-town NewYork. But the lack of receptionist removes an ability for a welcoming customer service. The bed was not great and it felt like the mattress was old. Security didn’t seem great with a basic door code and inability to change it.

The hotel was very convenient. It was very walkable to our points of interest. My main complaint was that the thermostat wasn’t working. I wake up in perspiration. I had to open the window and put up the outside noise. Since it was a non physical contact hotel, I texted and called and emailed to complain. I did not receive a response. During the day, there was someone in the front desk. He said he’ll have someone take a look at it. But no one did. This will be the last time I’ll book with this hotel or other contactless hotel

AC didn’t work or wasn’t running so room was 75 degrees each evening. Tried to open the windows but it was way too loud outside. Bed felt like a mushy worn in couch. Bathroom was in rough shape. Not a great spot, would not return or recommend.

Solid stay, would consider again I had a good experience at The Ridge Hotel. The bed was just okay, but I still slept well, which is what matters most. There’s a bar across the street that plays loud music, but it quieted down around 11 p.m., so it didn’t bother me too much. The location is great — super convenient. There was a bit of rust in the bathroom, but aside from that, everything was fine. Overall, a decent stay.
