There's a hidden 'resort fee' when you check in. Our room was leaking brown water from the ceiling of the bathroom.

Dear Mr. Hugh!We do appreciate your time to send us a review of your stay in our HOTEL. We feel sorry that you had to experience the issue in your room, unfortunately the condensation from the A/C in the above room provoked the leak that we were abler to fix it.About the 'resort fee', as you had mentioned...it's not a hidden fee, when you ae booking reservation online and on your confirmation letter from Expedia/Hotels.com...it is informed that the Hotel will charge the 'destination fee' at the check in.Once again, we do apologize for the inconvenience.

Umph... Next Option, Please
The pictures verses reality were misleading - I slept fully clothed as I thought I would catch a rash or something having a dark room without a window.
Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023
Response from Customer Satisfaction on Mar 29, 2023
Dear Novell!We feel sorry that you felt unsecure in one of our rooms. The non-windows room was specified on the website so it was not a surprise. But we do understand that if it's the first time, you might be unsure. However, we really appreciate your review, and we can assure you that room type is really clean by our housekeeping ladies.The darkness and quietness of the room type is that make many guests choose one of them.Maybe next time if you decide to stay with us again you can choose the room with windows for a new experience. Regards,

Dear Olena!Thanks for providing your review about your last stay in our Hotel. We do apologize for the noisy HVAC you experienced in your room. Petty much they are the same company, but some of them may operate a bit noisy and they cannot be lower down the sound. So sorry for that, when we are light sleepy it makes a huge difference. But we are glad that it worked out good in temperature.Also, we do appreciate your comments about our perks and amenities.

Perfect Hotel in Manhattan
This hotel was perfect all around. Clean room, very functional, in a perfect location convenient to LGA. Although I chose based on my meeting location, I would also return for personal travel as it is a bit off the bustle of the West side, yet very convenient to walk to shows or museums. Also near a station for the R line that goes to Queens and Brooklyn. But above all, the front desk personnel was excellent. Very friendly lady, very helpful - that makes all the difference. Thank you! This place is a gem.

Perfect short vacation
Check in was a piece of cake, bed super comfortable and snacks in the fridge were complimentary. Well priced for the area and friendly staff. We had very good Lebanese food next door at Omar's and several bakeries and cafes are short walk for breakfast. Good complimentary coffee. Subway at Lexington and 53rd is a half block away and from there you can be in Times Square or Rockefeller Center in 2.5-3 minutes. Never took a cab and got around all of Manhattan easily from this location. I would stay there again anytime

Late check out concerns
For the most part we were happy about the stay. The one thing that didnt work for us was the 11am check out time. We really needed 12 or later since i have a 3year old that sleeps really late. They werent able to accommodate late checkout past 11:30 with their reason being they are a small hotel and their cleaning staff leave right away.
