Given the price, I was expecting more. The property feels outdated, with old rooms and an overall need for renovation. For the cost, I'd recommend exploring other options that offer better value and more modern amenities.

DO NOT STAY HERE! My room did not have a thermostat (ripped off the wall), smoke detector (missing), light switches were broken with wires coming out of them. They offered me another room and it was equally as bad. Additionally, the furniture in the lobby was ripped, paint was chipped off walls in the lobby and the hotel rooms. This place NEEDS to be inspected by the NYC fire department!!! They would not refund my money, I kept getting the run around from the front desk staff and night manager. I did not stay here and had to book a room for the weekend last minute at another hotel. Consider yourself warned!!! I would NEVER recommend this place!

The elevator situation was probably the only part of the stay we found frustrating. Long waits for only 2 elevators.
