Overall a great stay! Front desk agent( I think her name was Jordan) was great!! Give her a raise! Only thing that was eh was a rude women employee, presumably manager on the roof top bar around 11pm 1/18. We were told by the desk that the bar would be open later as it was busy. We were already on top floor so we walked upstairs via stairs, opened the door and an alarm went off. It completely scared us! She yelled at us in front of everyone “What do you think you’re doing!”. Gave two girls with already severe anxiety, panic attacks for an hour, but besides that we had a great time!

Great place for what it was had some dirt around the room but the staff cleaned it up promptly. Also was charged 90 dollars for “facility fees” which was so unnecessary since we barely were at the hotel anyways and we had no option to opt out of the payment. Pros: very spacious and great location.

Excellent for people, not so much for dogs

Staff were above and beyond friendly and helpful! We went to both restaurants and both were excellent, with terrific atmosphere. One complaint, and this is possibly a complaint about New York and not the hotel itself--there is NOWHERE for dogs to do their business, unless you count a small space by a tree facing the street (which proved scary for my two dogs). Even the nearby parks were notably dog UNfriendly. If this matters to you, investigate a bit before booking. That said, we had a wonderful stay and I would definitely stay here again if I wasn't bringing them along.
