Da Vinci Hotel

I appreciate the kindest of the receptionist, he also helped me out with the heat in the room. We can feel the hotel is not brand new but it is clean and you get it for your money.

Da Vinci is rated as a three star hotel, but that’s like saying Comfort Inn is a five-star hotel. When tax was included we paid 300 and night for a room that was not even worth 100. The sheets were dingy and didn’t match. Pillows were covered in thick plastic that crunched every time you put your head on them. The TV attached to the wall had wire sticking out everywhere. The curtains weren’t measured to match the windows. There was no closet, only an crooked cabinet worth a bar so low that even a shirt hit the shelf below. The one upholster item Dash a chair seat Dash was covered in plastic like you used to see in the 1960s on furniture. The floor in the bathroom was cracked and at first I thought the tub wasn’t clean but it was simply worn and marred. They filled to service our room one day, so we had to go down to the lobby and ask for towels (there’s no telephone in the room).I could go on but I think people will get the idea. I don’t think I’ve stayed in a worse hotel since I was a 21 year old visiting London on a budget.

Positives: great location. Friendly front desk staff. Allowed us to keep bags there before check in and after check out. Free coffee in the lobby in the mornings. Decent price considering NYC in December. Negatives: We couldn’t get TV to work and asked them to fix it but it never worked while we where there. (Not sure if they tried or ignored our request). Comfortable linens but bed was too soft without much support. Mildew in shower.

If you are after a chain hotel this place isn't for you. A little boutique hotel on Broadway within 5 mins walk of Times Square. Location was perfect. Room was basic, but clean and came with a safe and fridge. Wifi was good. Breakfast consisted of coffee/tea and pasties which was all we needed to start our day. There were plenty of places locally if you are needing more for breakfast. No large per night resort fees either! There was also a restaurant attached which served fantastic food that I highly recommend. We were very happy with this hotel and would absolutely stay here again.

The lobby was cute and the receptionist was very sweet. Other than that, this was a very average place. Room was tiny, with several small inconvenience (ex: light bulb out; room very cold when we arrived). We were only there 1 night, but I definitely would not have wanted to stay there any longer.
