The hotel does not match up to the reviews before. The room was dirty and full of other people’s hair and marks on the floors and windows. There was not security lock on the door and you could hear everyone in the hallway at all hours of the night at the extremely loud ice machine. The location is also awful!! There is nothing to do except a few fast food places near the station but it wasn’t somewhere I would recommend going. It was so bad, we left 3 days early and moved to another hotel. I emailed the hotel to ask for a refund on the days we didn’t stay but the emails bounced back and then when it was forwarded to the manager (Michael) I’ve had no reply! Avoid at all costs!!!
Hair on the shower wall which was there upon arrival and after the cleaner came

Sketchy area. Saw cockroaches. Looks like it was just renovated so looks clean. Maybe it’s just a NYC thing.

The staff was good but we had a leaky toilet when we got in there and they fixed it quick enough but with out cleaning up the water there. I felt unsafe and dirty right when I walked in and I’m in the process of getting my money back. We left within 20 min of being there.

Both male staff at Reception were extremely helpful and friendly, lwith one Reception member of staff very welcoming towards us on our return each night). Indeed, on checking in, when he noticed that we were a lengthy stay he sourced a high storey room for us. The housekeeping ladies too were a delight, and whilst we rarely saw them they ensured that clean towels, soap &c were always well stocked for our return home each night. Thank You ladies and gentlemen ! They are a credit to your company. We hope to return again.l

Actual hotel was nice, clean and staff was friendly and helpful. The washroom and room was spacious. could use some hooks to hang towels in the washroom, and ac/heater for the room to change the control. Hotel was close to subway station, but the walk between the station to the hotel I wasn’t comfortable with.

I recently stayed at the Capital Hotel and unfortunately, my experience was not up to my expectations. One of the most concerning issues I encountered was a serious breach of security. Someone else had the same key as me and entered my room while I was sleeping, which made me feel extremely unsafe and uncomfortable. I hope the hotel takes immediate action to investigate this incident and enhance their key management system to prevent such incidents in the future. I would appreciate it if the hotel could also review their overall service standards to ensure guests have a safe and pleasant stay.

Just a bit tucked away (4-5 blocks) from food and transport to get 5 stars, but for the price it's definitely 5 stars! Also the staff were extremely nice and helpful.

The price of the accommodations was among the cheapest in the Manhattan/Queens area. The area between the metro stop and the hotel appears to be a bit scary with quite a few homeless people, but we were never bothered. The beds were very comfortable with quality linens and pillows. The room is sparsely furnished with only one nightstand and one table and chair. There is a refrigerator; a microwave is available on floor C, which is in the basement. The shower has plenty of hot water.
