The hotel is not old, but also not new. Unfortunately, during my 2 weeks stay, they were renovating the lobby, which presented severe limitations in that area, which is rather small for a 31 floors hotel, and where the breakfast buffet is served. But I gather, that the area was being optimised and when finished, it'll be a nice place to spend time and have breakfast. Unfortunately, I did not have luck on those days f my stay, as the works wee carried out throughout the entire time I was there. The breakfast is OK and makes the hotel really worth it regarding the overall price (hopefully they will not put it up after the lobby renovations!). The room was not big, but confortable, clean and with a nice and ample bathroom, AC working well. The staff at the front was great, they were always very friendly and helpful, a real plus of this hotel. The location is also great, 100m from the east river and pier 15. There are nice restaurants in the area and also good access with Fulton Station close to it. And the lifts (2x) are incredibly fast!. I suggest though, that if you decide to have breakfast there, that you go early, as, in spite of the renovations, the space is too small for the size of the building, and it gets crowded towards the end (9:30 AM). Overall, this was a very pleasant experience, in spite of the lobby renovations. I would gladly spend time there again.
