1. The negatives: The room had nice amenities, but it appeared a tad small and rather dark--so did the hallway going to the elevator.

5. we were given a room on the 18th floor and it was a large room, only negative was view out the back,but overall great.

6. The only negatives were that the wait to check-in was quite long, and the swank lobby/bar area (which offers great people watching) was always completely full, but all of these are signs of a hip hotel.

"Posh and Convenient " Read full review on TripAdvisor 3/31/2012 Vote

7. All of the negative things I've heard about NYC over the years regarding how rude and unfriendly people were the subways being dangerous and the traffic being unbearable was totally wrong.

8. Actually surprised to begin writing this and see negative reviews.

"Great location, worth returning " Read full review on TripAdvisor 1/6/2012 Vote

9. Take your money somewhere else because if you dare say anything negative about the 'whatever, whenever' experience, they will question if you really stayed there.

"Expected more - don't believe the hype " Read full review on TripAdvisor 1/5/2012 Vote

10. Our only negative was the Whiskey Blue lounge which is not managed by Starwood, the staff in there needs to get an attitude adjustment and hire servers instead of strippers.
