The room was very clean and the staff was helpful. We had a maintenance issue, and a staff member was sent up immediately to help out. If you get there before check in, you’re allowed to drop off your bags and they will secure them for you so you can get started exploring! Overall the stay was pretty good!

They recently replaced the heating unit I. The room however the did not repair the wall after doing so. The new unit was smaller and you could see lots of dust and torn sheetrock all around the edges. Was not appealing to look at. The furniture was also worn. The staff were nice and stored our bags for the day after checkout for a fee.

Great Location, but Maintenance is Lacking I recently stayed at The Gallivant Times Square, and while there were some highlights, the overall experience was frustrating due to the state of the room and lack of communication from management. The Good * Location: You truly cannot beat the location. It is in the heart of everything, making it incredibly easy to get around New York City. * Staff: The housekeeping team was the highlight of the stay. They were very attentive, friendly, and kept the room quite clean despite the other issues. The Bad (Maintenance Issues) Unfortunately, the facilities are in desperate need of urgent maintenance. My room had several glaring problems: * The Bathroom: Several parts were broken, making it difficult to use the space comfortably. * The Walls: It looked like the room had recently undergone "repairs," but it was a DIY disaster. There were wall putty spots everywhere that hadn't been sanded or painted over, which looked very unprofessional. * Climate Control: The AC/Heating unit was completely non-functional. Service Disappointment The most frustrating part was the lack of follow-up. I notified the front desk about the heating unit not working, but I received zero feedback or assistance. No one came to look at it, and I wasn't offered a room change or even an update. Summary: While the location is excellent and the housekeeping staff works hard, the hotel feels neglected. It’s hard to recommend staying there.

The hotel was dirty, we had to change rooms twice, and the staff was rude about it. They first gave us a room and the key didn't work, so we were moved to another room that was very beat up and dirty. We complained and they moved us to another room that was also very unkept. I would not stay here again or recommend this to anyone traveling to NYC.
