disliked being put in the "north wing" which has an entrance at the back of a carpark, nothing to do with the main reception, in fact seemed like a different place. There were some dodgy characters slouching around in there each time we came back late at night which the security man had obviously missed; felt very unsafe and isolated. Pool was out of order, no coffee machine in room, co... [more]uldn't open the curtains as they directly faced other rooms. The nearby diner they recommended for evening meal as there was none on the premises was near the dodgy Port Authority and one of the druggies wandered in and sat near making us feel very unsafe again. For breakfast there was a deli next door to the carpark into which the police, displaying their guns, from across the road kept dropping in to collect their takeaways, incongruous baroque and classsical music playing in the background presumably to keep the undesirables out. They should build a passage to the north wing that has to be entered only through reception, but then they'd lose some carspace. [less]

We booked this hotel through WOOGO under the pretense that this was a 4-star hotel... I would actually rate this property a solid 2-2.5 star. This includes the granite overtones, and rock hard beds, enough to throw you off in the pictures. Many rooms are motel-style with common outside hallways.

We were put off by the fact that the only reason the staff agreed to move us from an e... [more]ven worse room because their manager happened to stop in when we checked in. He accomodated us as best as he could (he was a nice guy).

No A/C, and its hot tonight... Front desk suggested we keep our window open... yes, the only one, and it faces the common hallway.

I've never wanted to leave a place so badly! [less]

The convenience of parking your car right where you are staying is invaluable. The room was good sized, and well priced. Bit of a walk to Times Square but who cares. Excellent diner almost across the street, even delivers. Good value for the money.
