there is no communication between front desk and housekeeping which really inconvenienced my guest experience. 1 - the first room I walked in was dirty so they moved me to another one. 2 - I requested a late check out however housekeeping was relentlessly banging on my door from 11am to get me out. The front desk charged had already charged me for the late check out so I don’t understand how housekeeping wouldn’t see that note. The rooms are okay, could use some love. Overall, frustrated with staff and operations.

We stayed at The Gallivant Times Square from Jan 31st to Feb 6th. The rooms were okay and had everything you’d need for a short stay, but the hotel itself is a bit run down. The lobby is nice, and the staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. Housekeeping was sensational — our room was cleaned daily, we received fresh towels every day, and the housekeeping lady we saw a few times was absolutely lovely. She even followed up to ask whether maintenance had fixed the issues we reported, which was really appreciated. Unfortunately, some room issues were never resolved. The safe never worked, the toilet clogged and overflowed twice, and while we were given a TV remote, the TV itself only had one channel. The shower had great water pressure, but water would leak all over the bathroom floor, which could be a slipping hazard. After the second toilet issue, staff did offer to move us to another room, but with only three nights left it felt like more effort than it was worth. Overall, the location is fantastic — less than a 5-minute walk to Times Square and close to subway lines. This is not a 5-star hotel, but for a cheaper stay in an unbeatable location, it did the job.

This may have been the worst hotel ever. The room was very run down, walls need painting, desk chair was filthy and stained, wall lamp above the bed was broken and hanging down. Most of the power outlets didn’t work and the ones that did, you had to prop your device in just the right angle to get any power. No seating, just the beds. Plenty of room for a few chairs or loveseat. No ice machines or vending machines, not even a lobby store to purchase snacks or toiletries. Did not enjoy the experience at all.

Hotel is Terrible I definitely do not recommend staying at this hotel.. I booked a queen suite and got a full bed for me and my partner.. then when you get into the room it’s extremely small and nothing works. Shower was broken, tv didn’t work, the door was also busted in and screwed together etc.. On top of everything else when I checked out it’s been weeks and I have yet to receive my refundable deposit. I’ve been calling them and they just say “ well give you a call back” and haven’t received anything yet. Absolutely terrible, DO NOT STAY‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Location - AMAZING. Cost - REALLY GOOD. Size - by NYC standards, good. Bathroom - small but standard, good. Staff - very friendly and helpful. Especially the cleaning staff. Clean - VERY. Quiet - YES, even on a busy NYC street. WiFi - reliable. Check-in - seamless. Condition - Hmm. Much to be desired. - Broken outlets. - Not enough outlets. - Broken window made it very cold in the room. - Unpainted spackle on the walls. - Floor trim missing. - Dresser drawers broken. - Floor tiles warped, made walking a bit clumsy. - No carpet, no curtains (echo). - No fridge.
Spackle on the walls. Just one example. A little paint goes a long way.
Wood trim missing.
Dresser - peeling. Only 1 drawer of 3 worked.
Bathroom was great, but why is TP in a place you can't reach? When there are other places it could go.

The room is larger than some rooms in mid-town Manhattan can be. Bathroom is minimalist in size. Price is right, at least in mid-week as I travelled. Staff are great. My lower rating is due mainly to the very poor wifi. I am rarely in my room but one ipad could not to the point of entering the password, other connected but dropped whenever trying to actually use the internet. The blinds could be a bit more "room darkenting". Most any other complaint is nothing you can fault the hotel for.

From the staff being rude and dismissive to the undisclosed charges at check out, save yourself and do not stay here. Oh and in the month of January they thought it was appropriate to have space heaters as their source of heat in the rooms.
