Pre-read the past reviews, and still didn’t fully prepare me for how small the room was. My husband and I had to communicate specific movements and intent to keep from running into each other-we might have actually gotten some practice to help strengthen our marriage?
The check in code for our room was incorrect, but it took less than a minute to get that resolved. All messages were very well monitored and always received an immediate response. We thought we had a towel problem, promptly given a solution. (Turns out you can still miss towels in the tiniest room alive, don’t forget to check behind an open door!) Pro-tip, the comforter really is a comforter and not a fitted sheet, it just looks exactly like one without the corner elastics. Our one *actual* inconvenience was pretty much a non-issue.
The lobby was great, communal space was really appreciated, the artwork was rad, but the rooftop is an absolute must and the highlight of the whole building. Just plan on good walking shoes and pack light, the room is clearly just for sleeping and brushing your teeth-there’s a CVS/Whole Foods/liquor/cannolis/pizza all within spitting distance and you can set yourself up on the roof easily if you don’t want to venture out a ton. My husband and I were all on foot and had an amazing time and could easily get wherever we wanted to go.
Also it’s New York, bring earplugs.
