1. This Staybridge Suites hotel was quite pleasant, with rooms equipped with a kitchenette, however one of the main downsides were the lifts.

"The lifts and that one staff definitely lets down this hotel " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/13/2012 Vote

2. The only downside is the time you wait for the elevator, since there are too many floors for only 2 elevators, so I recommend you stay on the lower floors, although the view is not so good.

3. The only downside is elevator wait times, but timing is everything.

"Gem of a Hotel " Read full review on TripAdvisor 3/30/2012 Vote

6. The downside of the fridge is that it made a fair bit of noise at random times overnight and as it's only 2 foot from the bed you'll hear it.

7. The only downside was the elevators, they were a little slow and sometimes we had to wait a bit (especially in the AM during breakfast).

8. The only downsides were:It was opposite the bus station (but even that wasn't a big deal)The doors weren't so soundproof so you could hear kids crying a few doors down, but not loud and only occasionallyThe subway is nearby and so you're not more than a few stops from Union Sq or anywhere for good restaurants.
