Whilst the staff were very friendly and helpful, the hotel itself has become very "tired". I have stayed here for my previous 2 visits to NYC, but there are no longer free shuttles to Newark Airport, which meant more expense than expected. There was also no bar anymore. The décor and the whole place needs some sprucing up and more attention to detail would improve things dramatically. The rooms where generally clean and tidy but like I said before the attention to detail is not there, it is as though they just don't care anymore.

My room had bed bugs in the bed. The beg attacked me all over my body. The hotel refused to give me a refund. I was there for only three hours.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Not great, but not bad

The room was not especially clean. The bed was, which was nice except for the cigarette burn on the sheet. The bathroom was acceptable. The rest of the room needed a thorough cleaning and maintenance. The hotel is what you would expect. It was a cheap room for the night. It was fine for just me, and adult male, but I wouldn't bring my family by. Honestly, I'd stay again if I had a similar need.
Dirt behind the bed. Not terrible, but still dirty.
The outlet has seen better days.
