Nothing imperial

Upon arrival, refrigerator not working, blackout shades broken, no toiletries, had to ask. Also, no way to make coffee or tea in the room. With no inhouse cafe, we had to go off premises for breakfast or beverage.

I was drawn to this location due to convenient proximity to the ballet and the rooftop lounge in the summer. A plus that the Empire is featured in one of my favorite shows (Gossip Girl). However, as a young woman who travels alone I would prefer if the elevators required room keys for access as an added layer of security, even though the UWS and Lincoln Center is generally a very safe place to stay
