I guess I should have known that a hotel room for under $200 a night in NYC is not going to get you a lot but this was much worse than I thought it would be. I picked this room because of its proximity to the Javits Center. I was in NYC for a week working a trade show. Check in was fine but as I boarded the elevator my hopes of a pleasant clean room began to fade... when the door opened at the 7th floor I knew that this location was in need of a facelift and was worn and old. The dark hallway carpet was beyond old, the walls and doors in the hallways were stained and beat up. Unfortunately, the cleanliness did not get any better in the room. Again, stained and scuffed walls, tired and broken furniture, mold in the bathroom, a toilet paper holder that feel off the wall if you pulled the tp too hard... it goes on.
It was late so I thought I would deal with some the issues in the morning. To say I slept well would be far from accurate. The AC unit in the room was so loud that even with ear plugs in it was hard to sleep. It woke me up several times coming on with a loud grinding noise...
I ended up staying elsewhere for 2 of my 7 nights... If I thought I could have gotten my money back I would have booked somewhere else the other 5 nights too.
The old adage "that you get what you pay for" could not be more accurate with this listing.
I definitely will not be booking here again for our next trade show... beware.
