My friends and I stayed in two rooms for two nights. The location was excellent and the rooms were clean, but as for the rest, the stay was extremely disappointing. The rooms did not look *anything* like the pictures, but were spare and somewhat run-down versions of freshman dorm rooms. The mattresses in my room were fairly new and comfortable, but my friends in the other room reported springs they could both feel and hear. The single radiators were on only part of the time and the temperature could not be controlled in the rooms. There was an actual open gap under the window A/C units, so there was a strong draft of sub-freezing air all night. We stuffed towels under our unit to reduce the draft, but our friends did not want to do that because they were trying to get rid of a strong smell of cleaning fluids in their room. Obviously the window gap also admitted loud early-morning (pre-5 am) construction and street noises. The showers supplied about five seconds worth of hot water on both days, after which they turned lukewarm.
Certainly as far as comfort went, this stay was the worst we’ve experienced in NY so far. The rooms bore no resemblance to the advertised pics. They were somewhat less expensive than some others we considered but in hindsight we would have gladly paid a little more for climate-controlled rooms with hot water and a coffee maker! Definitely do NOT recommend.
