My partner and i booked to stay at this so called "TRENDY" central apartments in New York for two nights in April of this year for what was to be the end of a lovely holiday together. On arrival at reception we were told a $100 would be charged to my credit card in the event that we would use the bar.... it gets better! This never happens at any decent establishment, your card details would be taken but not charged.
On arrival into our "ROOM" as this was not an apartment nor studio as advertised our faces dropped at the total daylight robbery that had taken place. The room was filthy, the mattress dirty with huge lumps in various parts, the ceiling had stains from damp, the air con did`nt work and the room was as hot as hell, oh! and the "Bar" consisted of soda`s (five or six at most and water) even at the Regis this would not amount to $100.
Going into the bathroom there was a smell of stale urine, at this point i went to the reception and asked for a room change. The new room was a tad better with about just enough room to swing a cat. There was less of an aroma in the bathroom, but it had a pipe running through that made it terribly hot.
On our second morning the toilet overflowed and the shower broke, it took forever to get sorted, i had to physically go downstairs to get somebody to come and sort the flood out. The receptionist had turned his nose up at my request but luckily a manager of some sort was passing through and over heard and ordered immediate action much to my delight. This unfortunately was a rather disappointing experience and very misleading advert. I urge you to spend a bit more and get what you pay for, this was daylight robbery in my books..... Never again..... Unfortunately i did`nt take pictures of the "REAL" Woo Goo.
