I stay here periodically when it is cheaper than we I want to stay.

A couple of things. Service is mostly non existent. Upgrades are non existent. They closed their lounge because of Covid and have no plans to reopen it. Up till my last stay, you were able to get bottles of water from the Bell stand but they stopped giving them out.

There is a $30 dollar per day resort fee but my corporate rate is not charged for it.

Gym is decent. Hotel has a lot of rooms and is usually very busy. Elevator waits can be long. Waiting to check in can be long. If you want the hotel to store your luggage then the hotel will charge for it. Restaurant & bar are okay.

For me, location is good because my office is in Midtown. It is also very close to a subway line which makes it easy to get around the city.

Thanks for the info. I honestly don’t think we will spend a ton of time in the room or at the hotel. It’s really a place for us to lay our head, shower and change clothes.

It will meet that criteria. It just won't be particularly clean, tranquil, or with good service.

Just arrived and have not stayed here since 2019. No complementary waters in the room or available at the front desk. Per the agent, all water has to be purchased (even for ambassadors).

Breakfast voucher is good for the buffet or room service (All-American with no substitutions).

Breakfast was depressing last there even if paying
My reason for not coming back is the beds are hard as cement the new Marriott standard
farewell sweet sleeper from Starwood 😩
