When I checked in and went through the room, seems like someone was already “living” in that room. But the key that I got from the front was working for that room. I got confused and went down to ask about it but they said that they had given me the correct room (they thought that just the cleaning man didn’t clean) and they asked to cleaning man to go to the room with me again for checking. When the cleaning man was going together and seeing the room, he said someone is already using that room definitely. We went to the front again, and when they checked on the monitor or something like 2 minutes and they said “Oh someone is already using that room, sorry” It was my first experience that I got the wrong room which is someone already booked. After that, I got another room, but I still had some worries because if they give our room’s key to other customers, that means strangers can come into our room even if it is an accident. It was just two days trip, so I just stayed at this hotel, but I am not sure this hotel is good to stay.

I was very disappointed that it took me over an hour to get towels for my room. I arrived after 10pm and found no towels in my room and the front desk didn’t answer the phone. After multiple attempts I had to go down and check on them twice. It took over an hour to get them delivered. They also didn’t have any drinking water at this hotel and advised that I used the drinking fountain. The staff was not friendly at all nor apologized for not answering the phone, not having towels, or for the delay. They acted as if I was being a massive inconvenience. It was frustrating and I will not be staying at this property in the future.

The property itself looks amazing. But there were some broken signs and the elevator panel was broken on one side and there was a misspelled paper explaining that. There was also visible duct tape on the ceiling. The most annoying thing was that they did not accept American Express and I could not use my company card. Something I’ve never experienced at a hotel before.

Nonexistent customer service in filthy hotel

The staff of this hotel seem to not have gotten the memo that they are employees. They laugh, joke, around play really loud, personal hip-hop music, never agreed to guests and when asked something almost always respond with its not their responsibility or just no. The staff here gave me two rooms that were not set up for guests, leaving me to lug my luggage to three rooms after a long international flight with no apology. The state of the rooms and hotel is abysmal. There’s only one working elevator, which leaves very long cues. Room service only makes the bed and does not actually clean the room. After a 10 day stay, I was absolutely disgusted to shower or even walk in my room. They also do not give you towels, shampoo or soap and unless you explicitly and repeatedly ask for it. There were unexplained brown, smears all over the wall. Location is good near multiple subways and bed was comfortable

Painfully outdated.

This hotel needs a facelift. Ratty towels and don't expect more than one!, crazy lighting, no bar, no patio, no clock in the room, lumpy pillows and the AC didn't work, room was a sauna.

We arrived after check-in time but they did not know if room was ready or not. There were no towels in the room and they did not arrive until the evening. They know about this but did not advise. If you see reviews of hotel you will see that this happens all the time. There is no cups etc in the room and no coffee making facilities. Half of the elevators are out of order so long wait for lifts. All the bars and restaurants are closed and have been for many years. A lot of the light bulbs in the room do not work. The room is looking very tired with scratches and holes in furniture. It has potential but sadly is let down.
