During my visit at the Blake Hotel we received the utmost pleasant stay. The front desk staff were very polite to take time and give us directions to where ever we were going for the past two days. You have a front desk employee by the name of Terry who has the most pleasant attitude and seems to enjoy his... more

I really enjoyed my stay at the Blake. I had read so many bad reviews I was skeptical. The room was nice and I loved the lobby. I'm not sure about hotel service because I didn't need anything or room service. As far as the bathroom, it is a little small, but I think the half glass shower door is... more

Your better off in your rented car. i was in the Blake for a Halloween party with some colleagues and it was the worst and we're rode dogs so we stay in many hotels around the country and I'm sad to say that this has to be the worst so far. they went to far on making it look European... more

Over the weekend i stayed at the Blake Hotel for the Avon walk for breast cancer with many other walkers and my daughters. Friday night, my friends and i decided to eat at the hotel restuarant....after waiting an hour for just a glass of water.we found that the water had floating tissue paper and black chuncks in it. When the... more

We stayed at the Blake with a large group...The Avon Walk for Breast Cancer...we had to be up each morning between 4 and 5 o'clock. Many flew in from out of town for this event. Here are my complaints about The Blake: 1. There was NO room service available.....which is rediculous, especially for the people who flew in and had... more

OK, I hear that some of the rooms are not updated and if you stay there, I can see why it may get a bad review, but I have a great experience! To stay that close to downtown for so cheap was amazing! My room was perfectly fine and everyone working there was very nice. I would stay there again... more

The 'modern' makeover here failed. They put lipstick on a pig. The old hotel is still here underneath the NY Hotel makeover. The new tile in the bath surrounds the old tub. New but gloomy Elevator decor with the old chipped paint on the doors. It was done on the cheap and it's obvious. I've been in NY hotels that... more

What is all the fuss about??? We had a great time from beginning to end. Bell boy was overly friendly as well as the entire staff. A little dated on the outside, but our room was great. Quiet, cozy and the shower was hot and had lots of pressure. cant figure out the glass "curtain", but anyone with any common... more
