I was charged more than what was explained and the staff would not fix the charges. The blinds in the room were broken and wouldn't roll up or down correctly. Overall, it was a good vacation but I would probably stay somewhere else.

Excellence in Harlem

This hotel and its staff are exceptional and handle hustle and bustle very well. The restaurant staff could have been more helpful and inviting. The restaurant controls a majority of the common areas making it difficult to us when they close for sanitation and the evening. The rooms were roomy for NY standards. The decor and ambiance exude excellence. I would recommend and stay here again.

Great hotel. Need better techs for wifi

The rooms were extremely nice, modern and clean. The restaurant with live music on the 5th floor was also a major plus. My only issue was the wifi wouldn't connect to the tv and when I asked for someone to come and check it out no one showed up! Other than that it was a good stay.

Disgusting bed sheets

Booked 3 nights Renaissance hotel harlem checking in June 20 and out 23. The hotel bed sheets were so disgusting with blood like stains on both two beds. Requested for room change but the hotel refused. Have to check out after 1 night. Requested refund for the rest two nights we didn't stay but was rejected, saying it's hotel's policy. The refund policy should only stand if the hotel offer what paid for. Does that make sense? Please be causious. See the pictures. Can't believe this is a 4 star hotel charging over $300 a night exclusing breakfasts.

The room was nice decorated in the renaissance theme. The property was located near the subway and plenty restaurants. My only complaint is our room was only cleaned one day through out our stay I requested wash cloths and never got them. The check in staff was great!

The hotel’s location is undeniably convenient, and I truly enjoyed being in the heart of Harlem. Unfortunately, while everything outside the hotel met or exceeded expectations, the experience inside was quite the opposite—frustrating and disappointing from start to finish.

The property was so noisy. Even at check-in you couldn't hear. Why put guest check-in near the bar and the restaurant? We had a couple arguing from 11:30pm until 2:42am. Called down to front desk and nothing was done.

Very pleasant

This is a good hotel. It is a Marriott property, which means service will be good. Harlem is fascinating, and the subway is very close by. Breakfast was excellent. Front desk is extremely helpful. Very pleasant place.

The room was well set up, given the smaller size. It was very clean. We were given an upgrade to a city view once we registered as Bonvoy members. Be aware that some of the rooms don't actually have a separate, closed off toilet/shower. You can see that if you look closely at the photos on their site. We inquired about that and they gave us a room that did have a way to close off the toilet/shower. The staff were very polite and accommodating. The area around the hotel isn't all that great, but we didn't feel unsafe. We had to use our key in the elevator to get to our floor. Our floor was very quiet. I would stay here again.
