Disliked: Staff & service
Terrible experience, demonstrating a complete lack of corporate integrity. 1. Denied Check-in: Arrived Oct 22 with a confirmed reservation, only to be told "we are overbooked." I was denied my room. Another guest was also storming out, shouting about being overbooked. 2. Forced Relocation: Staff moved me to a lower-stared hotel nearby (I had to walk there alone at night). They covered the cost, but I paid for a premium hotel and got a budget one. No compensation was offered for the downgrade. 3. Empty Promises: The manager apologized, promised a personal follow-up call and a compensation voucher. He made me write down my full contact info (name, phone, email) on paper "just in case." I never heard from them. 4. Ignored Complaint: Never received the call or voucher. I sent a formal complaint via Expedia's platform on Oct 25. It has been completely ignored. 5. Blocked My Email: When I emailed the hotel directly, my email was rejected and bounced back. They used the contact info I gave them not for follow-up, but to identify and block me. They are actively blocking complaining customers. Overbooking is forgivable; the behavior that followed is not. Not complying the promise, ignoring the Expedia message, and blocking my email are intentionally malicious. This hotel has zero intention of solving problems. You risk being stranded, lied to, and then blocked if you complain.

Booked for 6 nights. Room class I booked wasn't available on arrival. Got a substandard room for the first night. So they said I'd get a great room for rest of stay. I had to check out. When I got back that evening they'd given my room to someone else. Said it was my fault for getting back in the evening and not precisely at 3pm - not that they'd said I needed to be back at 3pm! No compensation. Room cleaning was average. No hot water one night and one morning. Tea and coffee in the foyer - but no kettle in a room even though it had a kitchenette.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. The check-in was a little confusing and I was happy to see my husband and I weren’t the only ones struggling with self check-in. There is a lot of construction and the road in front of the hotel was blocked making it difficult to meet uber drivers but it’s a great location and hopefully construction will clear up soon.

Great location in Tribeca/Financial District. Right next to the 9/11 Memorial. Fairly basic hotel. Rooms are small but some are priced very well. Mortons Steakhouse ($$$) next door. Room Service is limited. Best food in the area is Riverside Market 300 Albany St, 3 blocks away. Local grocery store/deli with for options 3 meals a day plus reasonable prices. Friendly family owned.

Advertised as a “city view”, got a view of an old building and a giant pipe. When i mentioned this to the staff, the lady at the counter piped up with an attitude and said “if it had a window they call it city view”, like i should somehow know that and im an idiot for asking. Avoid, overpriced misadvertised and staff are rude and adversarial.
