1. And the Pen ended up being a none too shabby place to be 'stuck' while riding out Hurricane Irene, which extended our stay from 3 to 5 nights (the last 2 nights on the traditional Summer Splendour package)--we were fortunate the hotel had rooms available.

2. I know this sounds picky - but this is one of the most expensive hotels ($1000+ per night) in New York - and such shabby servive at the front desk is unacceptable.

3. From the lobby (old and fraying carpets, dim fluorescent lighting) to our Grand Luxe room and even Fives restaurant where we breakfasted (obviously peeling wallpaper), the overall impression was that of a fallen and shabby hotel in need of some serious refurbishment.
