There was no VIP benefit even though Expedia shows there is one. The most upsetting part was the pool was inaccessible for the hottest day we intended on having a pool day. It should be clear that the pool can be closed even to hotel guests for private events. It was extremely upsetting and ruined the first full day of our trip when we just wanted to relax by a pool.

Room was heavy with smoke smell and pubic hairs in the bathroom. I went to room for 30 min and took a meeting but the WIFI did not work. I had to take call from my Cell Data instead and could not stand the smoke smell. There was a man yelling loudly in the hallway and I did not feel safe. I was afraid to go into the hallway to exit the room. I was contacting Expedia during this call to let them know I needed to cancel the hotel, it was inhospitable and I could not stay. They said they called the hotel and that it was non-refundable. Non-refundable should only exist if there was a hospitable option. I reported the situation to the front desk and the woman said she noted it, but I did not see her actually doing anything. I had my bags and said I was checking out, I needed to get to a room with WIFI and that felt safe. There was a long line of check ins, and with my bags I let the woman know that I was checking out (I had not been in the room more than 45 min) and that this was a terrible experiance. I asked again for a refund on expedia and the hotel said no. I said I was there for 45 minutes, and I was willing to pay for 1 night and they could return the remaining $600+ for the remaining 2 nights on the reservation and I was staying elsewhere. This was a terrible experiance and first time at this Hyatt property.

The hotel was not kid friendly , and non of the amenities were available to us. after 11 am the pool is open to the public and all kinds of people were in and out some not appropriately dressed for the pool. i got the suite that was supposed to sleep 4 with a convertible sofa, the sofa bed was old and dirty and no sheets were provided, i ordered water and it never came. and the ac stopped working. it wasn't worth the $$$$ in an way , should've stayed at the maritime next door.

Hotel was just ok. Room was very nice, comfortable bed. Had to ask for hair dryer and washcloths. Pool was a disappointment, it was overcrowded. Around the corner from the Chelsea Market, I’d highly recommend it for places to eat! Earplugs were on the bedside table from hotel for bar music noise at night. Probably won’t stay there again

Property is in a fun, vibrant area. Easy to access everywhere via transit. Pool really isn’t accessible to hotel guests. Paid beach club for over 21’s. GM was helpful when I had issues with opening hours. Could definitely benefit from more front desk staff.

The property was average. The room small & the balcony tiny with a street view. We booked this hotel because they had a pool. We found out once we got there that the pool chairs had to be reserved on a separate website at $100 a chair. They also would rent them to outside hotel guests. We just thought that was crazy since this was a pricey hotel to begin with. I don’t think we would stay at this hotel again. We did enjoy the pool bar & staff but that was about it. The other staff seemed disconnected to their guests. We expected more courtesy.

The stay started out well enough but when the staff made an error and hadn’t saved our credit card, that we dutifully swiped for incidentals, the harassment started. Without informing us of the problem, we were locked out of our room— had to wait in line to get the key working again, but we were NOT told of the problem, until a late evening call to our room interrupted our evening and they said we needed to swipe the card again, we were prepaid thru the week so thought the next AM is fine, to take care of it— but after an hour much alter in the evening— they sent security to POUND on the door and aggressively escort my partner to the desk— this over a very small bar tab charged to the room. The manager is a nightmare, arguing with me, putting their concerns well above guests, continuing to lock us out of the room— this happened three more times, they deactivated the key for reasons unknown— and I swear she entered our room once when we were in the lobby— weirdly saw her in the lobby and then suddenly she was on our floor, near our room when we got off the elevator one evening. We were harassed. There is skanky customer base doing stripper dances at the pool, a nightclub ont eh a rent that produced a ton of street noise and congestion in the lobby and understaffed causing long wait times at the lobby. This place is ridiculous.

The visual design of the hotel and rooms was great. Practically, we had issues. We had a room below the nightclub. Sorry, we didn't pay a fair rate to have to wear earplugs to sleep. After miscommunications with service over the phone, I went back down to the front desk. When I asked to move, I was told we needed to wait a day before we could get a similar room. The following day we had to explain this again and again. In the late afternoon, we were told our new room was ready. At the front desk, again, we were asked to reconsider. The new room not the same class that we had booked. It was half the size and had no city view. No explanation or reversal of rate was offered. Also, the balcony lights were left on and the blackout curtains don't actually cover the window. I called down multiple times to the desk to ask them to be turned off. No answer. The following night those lights were off. Made me think that the first night was a mistake. Too bad no one could answer the phone to help us when we needed it. Ultimately, it's a unique hotel in a good neighborhood to visit. Don't assume you will get a great night's sleep.
