It was 4/10

The room was pretty clean, but I had a lot of problems with the bathroom one room my toilet kept getting overflown so they changed me and my fiancé rooms. Then the other room did not have running hot water. It was an inconvenience to our stay as far as getting ready, so we backtracked about an hour getting those things settled as far as location. It’s in a pretty good area not too long of a walk to Times Square.

The elevator situation was a disaster. We were on the 24th floor and there were only two elevators. For breakfast and checkout, it was impossible to get down to the lobby. The elevators were always full when the doors opened. We ended up walking 24 floors down. Also, the rooms were very small.

Had stayed at the HI on 8th Avenue last time and do not know how I got booked into this one on w39th street but it was not as good and was more out of the way. The staff were very friendly here, but I liked the other hotel much better!

Would not recommend

Location is nice, walking distance from Times Square. I booked the standard room and was informed upon check in we had a twin room. When I asked if we could get a queen/king room, the lady at reception explained we were given whichever room was left, as I had booked the standard room. Poor, but if that’s the case….. she suggested I would check the next morning after breakfast to see if we could move rooms. The beds were horrible, you could feel the springs and it had clearly been used lots as there were dents in the mattress. Checked after breakfast following day, was told too early, all during the day. I did, then told to check when coming back. I did, but nothing available. Then the lift situation; only 2 for the entire 36 floor hotel. And only 6 people allowed at one time. You guessed it, lots of waiting and braving stairs. The hotel is very dated. Showers were nice and room was clean. Would not stay again though

Great place to stay

We had a great stay. The elevator is not working well so we had to take stairs a few times from the 13th floor! The hotel staff was helpful and kind! The beds were comfortable and everything worked great!

I initially booked for four nights due to the information on Expedia that gave the distance to time square as 6mins which in reality is more like double that time. the distance was too far for walking for my wife who has degenerative osteoarthritis. i also noted a huge difference in the advertised few given on Expedia which showcase total amount inclusive of taxes and fees. However there were major differences in night rates from $230/night to over $400 for the second night. even with a lower third night, the total fee was still more than advertised in reality. I did not make a fuss about the money but when I realized the distance, I realized that we were misinformed. I immediately spoke kindly to the front desk personel about cancellation of the other nights with refund. I believe her name was Samantha who assured me, the refund is no problem once Expedia gives the go ahead and that I should contact Expedia. I immediately messaged Expedia via agent Shirley who gave me the opposite response that they are willing once the Hotel waives the cancellation fee and that the manager will have to give that confirmation in the morning. I was assured that everything will be sorted and that I am in good hands. Of course check out was 11 that day so I had to book another hotel for the rest of my trip to cater for my wife's medical condition.I placed trust that Expedia will have everything sorted. I was then told via email Expedia that the refund is impossible. I am still receive follow-up
