My flight out of LaGuardia was canceled and I needed to find a hotel. Unfortunately I did not have access to reviews - otherwise I probably would not have stayed here. The staff seemed ok, and granted I did not complain because with all the cancelled flights, the hotel was packed and I probably got the last room in the place. It definitely was not in the renovated section. Here were my experiences:
- I walked into my room and it smelled like urine. No kidding. (I would have requested another room or just left, but at that point I was just happy not to be sleeping at the airport).
- I then noticed there were pubic hairs on my bathroom floor. Totally gross, but I picked them up with some toilet paper.
- I could barely close the drapes. Had to fight with them for about 10 minutes.
- TV did not have reception for ABC, NBC, CBS, etc. Only for "cable" type channels.
- Continental breakfast was disgusting. There were half eaten bagels and dirty napkins sitting on top of the food that was to be eaten. The tables weren't cleaned and it just did not make me want to eat.
- The "free wireless" in my room got a signal that varied between fair and poor. It was mostly poor and I was not able to get any work done. I told the front desk - they restarted the router and that did nothing. Mind you - I was two rooms away from the router, so my signal should have been great. I ended up leaving early so I could pay for internet access at the airport.

I don't normally take the time to do something like this, but my experience was so bad I wanted to make sure others don't have to go through the same!

This was a get away trip for my daughter and I for her 18th birthday. I read the reviews and to be honest I was scared to stay here. But thetrip was already planned and paid for so I couldn't change it. I am sooo glad I didn't. We were picked up at the airport within 5 minutes of arrival by a super nice guy who handled all our luggage with a smile. We got to the hotel and were upgraded to a nice clean room 2 queen beds, clean bathroom lots of hot water. We had all the extras shampoo,conditioners,shower cap supplied by the hotel with a little sign asking opps did you forget something just ask sewing kits, razors ,toothpaste. There was also an ironing board with an iron in the closet hung up for our use + blow drier in the bathroom . Lets talk about the breakfast they had everything from hot hard boiled eggs,toast, french toast,pastries,waffles, coffee made by the cup fresh with creamers, vit d milk and fat free milk, cold orange juice ,apple juice hot chocolate and real butter + alot more. They also had fresh apple and oranges. When we go out of town this is the kind of hotel I want to stay at . The front desk was very helpful finding the sites. The price was also excellent. We will be back!!!!! Thank you PRICELINE for finding us this hotel. TERRY IN VIRGINIA

They are renovating this hotel and I stayed in the newly redone part of the hotel. Staff was helpful and hotel was clean and updated. I stayed one night and had an early flight the next morning. Overall I was satisfied with my stay here. Would use this hotel again as on overnight stay when traveling in NY.

Our family with 2 little kids stayed here for a week. The very first night, they forgot to clean up the room. We called front desk, were apologized and promised one day stay free. However, when mention about this as we were checking out, the hotel manager (I forgot his name) was very rude. He did not keep the words. Very bad customer service from management staff. I wish I can complain to his boss. The whole hotel is very dirty in general, especially the hallway.
