I can't believe that sites like expedia etc are advertising this place- I have never seen anything like it in my life... I never believed that I would see anything like this in New York City... this is the sort of place you'd expect to find in a third world country and the kind of place you have nightmares about, not the sort of place you'd pay good money to stay in.
Our room was on the fourth floor- there are no elevators and the stairs are falling apart- LITERALLY! I fell over whilst lugging my bag up a staircase and stepping on a step that turned out to be only half there.
The place STINKS of musty old pizza (as there was a Subway underneath it) all the way through, even on the fourth floor.
The lobby is pokey, dirty, the staff were smoking at the reception, they hardly spoke any English and were about as friendly as Hitler.
Now for the bedroom itself... here are just some of what you can expect if you stay here:
-Broken window which was taped up with parcel tape and cardboard
-View of a brick wall
-Cheap, broken heaters
-Wardrobe with door falling off
-Chewing gum and USED --- under bed
-Prison-type locks on doors
-Totally unsound-proof rooms
-Hookers as neighbours
-Bathroom the size of a cupboard
-Unstable toilet
-Un-enclosed shower so that when you showered, water flooded the whold bathroom
-Filthy carpets
-Very smelly throughout
-Almost non-existent sheets that smelt and probably hadn't been washed
-Dark and dingy
This truly is shocking and unbelievable. Totally amazed that a place like this exists to the public. I wouldn't even let a dog sleep in this dive and can't understand how or why it is still open, let alone being advertised worldwide.
It will spoil your stay in such a fabulous city. It cost me £350 for a 3 day trip to this place: for £400 I could've stayed in a respectable 3 star hotel. This is not even a 1 star. It is the biggest heap of crap I've ever seen.
If you're thinking of staying there.......DON'T!!!
