Room was a little shabbier than I expected. Carpet rundown, roman shades pretty dirty. A chair in the room would be nice. Very noisy heater. But ok for the area.

Felt like the great rate was only possible because the hotel is under construction. Bar in lobby closed. Rooftop too packed with outside guests and not open before 2. Wished we could have enjoyed coffee up there to start our day. Also zero security. No key needed for the elevators. Staff handed keys to my daughter when she arrived with out checking with me or ID. Very loose. A little bit careless. Charged a $50 resort fee I did know about until I asked for a receipt. Not super cool.

This property has gone downhill. It’s dark, dirty and unchanged. The front desk personnel are disingenuous and not friendly. Our room key demagnetized every day, so had to schlep down to the lobby every time to swipe out. Hallway to our room at the very end was dark, could not see where to insert key in door without a flashlight. Bathroom in mezzanine area was gross. Lobby untouched for years- literally if you look around carefully, it’s all dusty, there’s a whole unused old bar area that looks like no one has cleaned in years. Quite sad as there are many personnel just standing around to open lobby doors, but that’s all they do I guess. Room old, shower head the only updated thing which was nice. Rates way too high for what one is sleeping in. It’s unfortunate. It was the most disappointing stay in a hotel I have had in many years.

Key failure

The best part of the hotel is the lobby. Everything was great except my key failed almost every time I went to enter my room. I found this very annoying, expressed this to the staff, they made me a new key every time but did nothing else to make up for it.
View from the Starbucks next to the hotel. On the left is Lincoln Center.

A little pricey for the condition of the Hotel and size of the room. The location is ideal being near the museums, Central Park, and good dining.
