Terrible!

Room was dirty and the shower wad disgusting. The hotel had a club that was loud all night. Overall it felt very cheap and was extremely overpriced for what you get. Door staff was so rude. Overheard one guy yelling at his girlfriend and another one sat on his phone while guests came and went. Awful all around!

I wish some of the reviews had addressed this...if you want to stay overnight in a dance club with a hotel attached then this is the place for you. The music and bass thumping from early evening through all hours of the night shook our room. The noise was coming from the club and bar level and was travelling down what seemed to be an old dumb waiter shaft that wasn't sound proofed located in the hallway. It would be one thing if it was one night but it was all weekend. And we couldn't use the restaurant level because of the closure of the two main elevators so that non-residents could go up clubbing. So we never saw the skyline at night from the top level. Do yourself a favor and find a different hotel if you want a nice quiet stay with your family.

It is the second time we choose to say here. The location if fabulous, especially if you want to explore the lower side of Manhattan. The staff is super friendly, attentive and ready to assist you. The rooms are spacious enough and the windows provide a nice outside view. Compare to other rooms, bathrooms are nice too!
