Disappointing, even for an older hotel

The condition of the hotel was pretty bad. One elevator was down and I was placed on a top floor. When I got to the room, the a/c didn’t work, multiple lights and outlets did not work, and the space felt more cramped than other NY hotels. They moved me to a new room but, other than the a/c working, most of the rest of the issues were still there. The overall experience was very bare bones and basic maintenance seems to be an afterthought.

Great location, friendly staff. Housekeeping staff were polite and very thorough. Open shower completely soaked entire bathroom, and there was water damage. Elevators were so slow, often skipping floors or stopping on every floor for no reason. All in all, it was perfect for our needs.

We stayed 5 days with no working tv because they said something was wrong with the cable. We didn't find out until after we checked in. Also the week we went was cold and rainy and we didn't find out we couldn't control the thermostat until after we asked about the heat. They informed us that the heat was off and offered us a space heater

Do not stay in this property. They will continue to book rooms even when there is issues with the type of service they provide. They should be ashamed of themselves that they say they are a part of the service industry. A freaking joke of a hotel in a lovely area.
This was the 2nd room they moved me to. I was in room 1022. This was room 1027.
Room 1027. I have videos of the 1st room, disgusting to say the least. The only key card they gave me was a piece of paper. I did not feel safe even to leave my room to get food. And they had multiple elevators broken. No excuses.

When I arrived the room key system was down, they had to have a staff member ride up with each guest to let them into their room. Only one elevator was working. The bedside light in my room was broken, literally falling apart. I will not stay here again.

This property is located in a convenient location and close to main attractions and transportation stations. Check in and check out was very smooth. The room was clean and comfortable. Amenities and basic necessities available. I suggest looking into changing the shower head in the bathroom to avoid flooding the floor. It would be nice if the rooms had a mini refrigerator and a safe box. We encountered only one elevator functioning and it was very slow. Stairs were available, but for people with needs is not an option. I will definitely stay again in this hotel.
