Ceased trading and primed for demolition so left stranded in NYC in the dark with luggage and no hotel. A uniquely bad hotel experience.

I booked this hotel to stay in with my daughter and paid up front. When we turned up, at 2330, it was closed and was being refurbished leaving us stranded in a foreign town!

I like the location and access to the subway station and the Javits Center. The room I had was horrible. It looked like someone spilled coffee on the walls and it was never cleaned up. The floors were filthy and the furnishing's were in terrible shape. I understand that the price was on the low end for NYC, so my expectations should have been lower, but it was bad!

Front desk was no help for anything. Didn't know the neighborhood, or how to get around the city. Bathroom had lots of random hair all over. Bed was more like a futon than an actual bed. It seemed more like a hostel than a hotel.

I typically stay in three star, hotels or better. Not because I’m a snob because I like the place to be safe and clean. This place was neither. The room did not look anything like described in the picture. When I got into the room clearly it had not been cleaned thoroughly and there was a used bath towel hanging on the back of the bathroom door. Tub was in need of caulking and really replacement. I asked for room service the next morning; I put the sign on the door but no one ever showed up. I had to ask again. They went in eventually and all they did was change the towels not even did they didn’t make the beds. They didn’t clean anything. They never left any coffee or cups to drink water or coffee from, I had to ask the front desk for them for the both days I stayed there. This was the most horrible experience I have ever had anywhere, especially in Manhattan. I would’ve checked out and got another hotel, but I didn’t really have the time to do so and I was only there two nights. I was out of the room a good portion of the day which helped. Worst booking experience by far through Expedia. Very very disappointing.

The stay is great - one suggestion is to pls cancel the luggage fee - your hotel is decent - and a decent hotel doesn’t charge fees for helping your clients to check their luggage for a little bit before or after the time they are check in or check out. Otherwise I would have have really enjoyed the stay.

Location was the only thing I liked, because it was so close to Javits. Room was so tiny, that it was hard to move around. And I was solo. Cannot even imagine if a couple was staying there. I could make myself coffee, turn on tv, AC, reach out in the closet and iron - ALL while on a bed lol TV channels were weird. Bathroom in the lobby was out of service. There was no breakfast (when I was booking, it stated $15 fee for breakfast option) They charged $5 twice to hold my bag behind front desk (day I arrived and the day I was leaving) None of other hotels ever charged for that.

The toilet didn't flush well in the room I was in so I had to flush twice and at one point the water system was shut off one morning without notice so the faucet and toilet wasn't working at all and had to use the restroom in the lobby. It was working after a couple of hours though so that was good. The staff was nice and the room was clean. I would stay here again if I get a room where the toilet worked.

No power from outlets
The outlets seem as if they are in a timer or something. I checked in all the outlets worked but when I got back to the room to charge my phone & watch t.v. nothing worked!!!!!!! I went to front desk, because there was no cord in the phone to use it, I was told the technician was gone & there was nothing they could do. This is truly a 'you get what you pay for hotel.
