Door had a gap you could see through, flooring was buckled and loose nearly causing my wife to fall. Bed was hard and wore out. Great location, but in need of an update. Very small.

This was absolutely the worst hotel experience I have ever had in my life. This property is absolutely NOTHING like the expedia listing. Google shows some of the flaws. My room was by the elevator, which means every hour or more while sleeping I would wake to the loud ding of the elevator. It was like there was no wall between it and me. The heat didnt work, and the AC in the wondow leaked. The shower sprayed all over the floor, no curtain. The place was filthy, dust, dirt, and literally blood and poop on the walls. My room lock didn't work. I immediately tried to change hotels. Between Expedia and the terrible hotel management, it was impossible to move. I paid over 1k per night on this joke of a hotel. Whatever you do, don't stay here.

The rooms and furniture are in bad shape. There were no amenities. This hotel definitely needs lots of TLC and updating. There wasn’t even a chair to sit on. The front desk said none were available. They were not what you would call accommodating. I would definitely not stay here again.

The staff was courteous and the location was good, however the room was super small and in poor condition. It didn’t have a microwave or a small refrigerator. There wasn’t a counter in the bathroom to put your makeup or even a toothbrush.

This hotel is disgustingly dirty! With the wall paints chipped off, dirty shower, and nasty bed sheets. We found stains and hair on the bed. We decided to LEAVE this hotel and communicated the issues with front desk and Expedia. The lady at the front desk asks for the pictures we took and said “I only work here but if it was you to me I would have done things differently” - after reviewing our request for refund, the owners/managers refused. We lost our money. I do not recommend this place if you want to enjoy your stay in Manhattan.
