Liked: Cleanliness
Very disappointing. Overly crowded seemingly with students and others just hanging out in lobby doing work. And sketchy people wandering into the place from the street. No clear doorman or security in the place. Fight broke out in the rooftop bar with people yelling and bloodied. Room was TINY. Barely bigger than the bed.

This hotel is all pretense and no substance. The room was dark and looked out on a fire escape on which workers in the neighboring building would smoke right outside your window. There were ceiling leaks that caused wet patches in the carpeting and leaked brown liquid from the light fixture into the shower. The shower glass was not big enough and water pooled all over the bathroom floor after every shower so you had to use all your towels to mop it up, then there was no place to put all the wet towels as the bathroom had only one hook. The elevators were very slow and at times only one worked. When you got on one they were often crowded with people including hotel staff. When we reported the issues to the front desk they acknowledged the problems but offered no solutions and shrugged as if they knew but couldn't do anything. Completely not worth the money.

We really enjoyed this beauty of the architecture and the location. The staff was great, and the water pressure in the shower was impressive. The only thing I would say could improve is the beds are extremely flat and the pillows provide no neck support. The beds could improve - either they need way more pillows or different pillows that are a bit firmer and maybe a pillow you can use to sit up in bed as an option.
