Under construction, so we couldn't take full advantage, but clearly a beautiful property and room was nice. Only problem is the air conditioner blowing onto the bed, making it hot and cold alternating all night, otherwise nice room with good bathroom and amenities, comfortable bed, no issues!

Liked: Staff & service
The room’s temperature is not well regulated. When outside temperatures drop, the automatic heating triggered inside the room makes it very stuffy. We have discussed it at length with staff and it serms that they cannot do anything about it. This defect may affect our future planned stay at The Benjamin.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This property is under construction at a state I could not believe. They should not be allowing guest in the property. It's not just like there's banging during the day. They've rerouted the entire lobby, the elevator is a full of workers covered in dust and dirt. The lobby smells of acetone and paint, it's awful. I wrote the manager and I never heard a word back.

BEWARE DO NOT STAY HERE TILL AFTER THE RENOVATION. Total chaos and totally unacceptable to remain open during this major renovation. No Services available - Single Elevator and its shared with construction workers. There is another elevator open into filthy smell stairwells. Rooms old shabby with limited resources Construction in the area [ PLAZA Hotel renovation] has trucks backing up BEEP all hours of the night and terrible noise and traffic during the day. Doormen and Bellman only interested in offering private overpriced services to airport etc - sleazy RESORT FEES Charged in a HOTEL WITH NO BAR NO ROOM SERVICE NO SERVICES

Not really good
Sorry, it was bad. I say sorry because the staff was nice, and the room was actually nice, but it was a terrible experience. I got in late, after 11pm and the reception couldn't check me in for 45 minutes due to a technical problem. Then the shower was not hot, only warm. I regretted my choice and I won't come back.

Renovations underway. My room was nice, but as you would expect other areas were not. A ridiculous fee was tacked onto the bill, adding $45 a night to the bill, and I didn’t use any facilities. Not cool, but a lot of hotels are doing it now.
