1. - Close to where New Yorkers lived, the location was surrounded by residential buildings so you don't feel like living in a tourist zone- Modern furnishing, clean bedsheets, clean bathroom- Great solid and comfy queen sized bed - Large windows (though curtains need to come down at night otherwise people living in the opposite facing apartment can see you but it is a fair distant apart) there were views of the bridge in the far left window from my level - think it was the 6th floor but nothing really to rave aboutDISLIKE:- No luggage assistant when I arrived, had to manage with heavy backpack and maneuvering through the door myself - Staff appeared more alive with other front desk staff than me checking in- The heater did not work well to heat up the room and there wasn't additional blankets to use so you do wake up in the night feeling a bit cold- The ipod dock did not work- The bathroom set up appeared to resemble a disabled person bathroom - the toilet had a very high seat and no lid, there was a chair in the shower, the basin had large handles to turn tap on and off, there was no where to put your tooth brush or toiletry bag or hang up clothes while you shower (remember no toilet seat) - there was a towel rack but water from the shower head could reach the rack, the shower curtain hooks also kept falling off when you move it to get in and out of the shower- Water from the tap was either super hot or cold, there was not way to adjust it to 'warm' which reduced my shower time - You must pay for the internet, pay tv channels and snacks even if you move them from the box - apparently they have some sensor system that if you move an item for more than 30 seconds it gets charged to your room - I didn't test it out fearing I would be charged- No space in the mini bar for personal snacks it also had some special sensor system if items were removed - No kettle for making tea or cups to do so - Great sleep but woken up at 6am by the sound of police whistles directing morning traffic and attempted to get back to sleep but noise continues until 10am - Noisy / loud talking guest next door but this is obviously case by caseMOST UNHAPPY ABOUT:Arriving back after a long day to find that the cleaner had not closed my door properly after cleaning / or room had been broken into (not sure really) since I don't trust anyone and lock up all my personal belongings when I go out to minimize my chance of having anything stolen.
