3. well where do i start, the room was booked by my friends who flew in from overseas we arrive on 10/1/2011 love the vicinity it is located in but the lobby looks like a crack house that i have seen on tv, the elevator was so small that 2 adults with large handbags would not fit comfortaby, the rooms smelled strong of old ciggarettes and pee the bed sheets were marked and the heater was painted in an ugly pink the tv did not work, the view outside was so crappy, this bldg should be shut down its horrible, we complained to the BBB cause these living conditions for anyone is not healthy, they did not take a cancellation fee cause they told us we will not find a hotel room on the upper west side this close to the city for 700$ but we did at the hampton inn on 6th avenue.
