Disappointing given the reputation of this place
Upon check-in, was directed by the concierge to change to a room that he assured me would be an upgrade on the one I booked, as it was "more bigger" and had a nicer bathroom. When I actually got to the room, it was an accessible room which wasn't actually larger, but just had a larger, wheelchair accessible bathroom. The bathroom was not clean and there were odd black pieces of what appeared to be some kind of mold which appeared from underneath the rim of the toilet each time it was flushed. Additionally, the shower did not work and when I called it took over an hour for them to send a maintenance person to come and replace the shower head, which made me late for a meeting. When I called and mentioned this to the person at the desk, who was named Dean, his response was "I'm sorry to hear that, glad your shower's working now though". The room was dusty, and there were random hairs on the bed linens and the sofa. Really unfortunate, as the staff in the cafe and the rooftop bar were lovely. Sadly, will not be staying here again, although the location is perfect.

I stayed a room 343 and the thumping from the bar downstairs at 1AM on wards made it impossible to sleep. I complained a few times - if anything the bar music went up.

Gorgeous property but I don’t know… there’s something especially egregious about expensive hotels who don’t ensure guests have a great view of the city atleast. A decent city view is an additional premium which I find really greedy. Also, the hotel rooms prioritize aesthetic over function. The toilet was literally in the same space as the shower which I find really gross. For those reasons, I probably wouldn’t stay here again.

We truly enjoyed our stay. The room is typical New York which was very small, I also didn’t like how the sink was outside the bathroom. Weird, but we made it work. We stayed on a high floor (16) and the view was amazing. The environment and atmosphere is beautiful. The food was good as well. In all, I will stay again however maybe in bigger room if possible.
