Chelsea accommodation with pool

My room was on the first floor. Directly outside my window, looking out onto a small airshaft, was a collection of HVAC turbines constantly roaring. Like, mere feet away. I instantly asked to be moved, but the hotel was full. Was up til 4am the first night, got earplugs for the second night. Seriously, this should not be a hotel room at all, let alone in a supposed four star hotel. It should be an office or storage. And the staff were stone faced. Yes the hotel was full but there are still things you can do--a comped cocktail or discount in the restaurant, a reduced fee, anything to acknowledge that this was a ludicrous room to be paying 800 dollars for two nights in. The room itself was bare and bleak--and of course there was no sunlight at all, just that airshaft and the roar of the turbines. Left feeling totally snookered.

Held over $1,100 in four random charges despite having a prepaid reservation. No staff could explain why their “new system” would do this. Charged $69 for an early check in (fine) but the room was a SIGNIFICANT downgrade from what I had reserved. There was barely any room to walk in the room, no dresser/drawers, a desk so small I had to put the coffee machine on the floor to use my laptop. Ideal location but would absolutely never stay again.

It was clean

Room ok No room service

Great location but too old needs some update

Quiet and cozy. Staff were all helpful
