If cleanliness and comfort matter to you, don't stay there.
Pros:

The location was excellent. The staff was nice and friendly.

Cons:

The room, bathroom, and hotel facilities were all dirty. Except for the linen, the room and bathroom were disgusting. They never cleaned anything during the 7 days I stayed at the hotel. If I had known, I would have chosen another hotel. The room was very uncomfortable for the price we paid. Although hotel rooms in NYC are notoriously small, this one fell short of my expectations.

If not the Hotel from Hell, a candidate for the title
Pros:

I will mention breakfast here and say that it was something for which to consider repetition. I do not think that those preparing breakfast, have had much exposure to the world. On a scale of 1 to 10, i would say 6.

Cons:

8. Premature Departure – A limit was reached when we discovered an ant infestation, in our bed, on the morning of September 11th. It was substantial as to the number of ants crawling all over the bed. At this point, we decided that it was time to leave. We checked out at about midmorning.
When we disclosed the reason, the person at Reception at the time, could not have expressed less concern. There was no apology nor an offer of remedial action. Please note that I have photos of the ants on the bed.

In summary, La Quinta at Central Park has been the worst, throughout the years of my New York City experience. I consider the central reason to be that management is not even looking. Make no mistake, staff in areas such as Housekeeping and the departments, other than reception, do their job and conduct themselves excellently. Dealing with them was a pleasure.
However, regarding the area of Reception, it is my impression that supervision is totally lacking and there is no training evident, regarding demeanor and the disposition that should be conveyed to guests in every interaction. When dealing with a brand name hotel, with guests from out-of-town or country, it is not the place to manifest a demeanor or conduct, that is no different from colloquial circumstances. As a guest, I expect a welcoming and courteous orientation to be standard; and management has evidently failed to train and establish minimally acceptable standards.
Of course, payment was collected in full at the time of check-in. While I believe that some kind of reimbursement would be fair, it would be a pleasant surprise is such an action were to occur. I have additional details of the stay, should there be an interest.

Ubicación 10/10, instalaciones 6/10…
Pros:

La ubicación es lo mejor de este hotel, cuenta con paradas de tren a 5 y 8 minutos andando, la parada del autobús a unos 6 minutos, pero lo mejor es que tiene Central Park a tan solo 2 minutos, justo con la entrada a Strawberry Fields!! Al rededor del hotel hay muchos restaurantes y tiendas así que todo está muy accesible.
En cuanto a la habitación, las camas son bastante cómodas, y el aire acondicionado refresca bastante, aunque solamente en la parte en la que expulsa el aire, en el resto de la habitación no mucho ya que no circula por el resto de la habitación…
El personal muy amable!
Yo repetiría este hotel por el simple echo de la ubicación, ya que es una maravilla donde está!!

Cons:

Un poco caro para el estado en el que está el hotel. La habitación era DEMASIADO pequeña, no era como aparentaba en las fotos. Un “armario” que medía unos 20 cms como mucho en el que se suponía que tres personas teníamos que colgar la ropa… El mayor problema es que las ventanas no se quedaban abiertas así que en ningún momento pudimos tener las ventanas abiertas o ventilar la habitación, y con la mezcla de olores y la humedad del baño era difícil de soportar… En cuanto al desayuno, poca variedad y cada día lo mismo… Aún que yo creo que el inconveniente “mas grande” es el ascensor, un solo ascensor para 14 plantas, puedes llegar a esperar unos 10-15 min en hora punta….

THE HOTEL STAFF NEEDS TO CLEAN BETTER AND THE HOTEL OWNER NEEDS TO SPEND MONEY ON UPDATES.
Pros:

THE LOCATION WAS PERFECT, RIGHT NEXT TO CENTRAL PARK. THE STAFF WAS NICE.

Cons:

THE ROOM WAS CRAMPED. THE PHONE DIDN'T WORK. THE BATHROOM SHOWER WAS MOLDY AND CREVICES NOT CLEAN AT ALL. NO MICROWAVE TO HEAT UP ANYTHING. HALLWAY CARPET VERY DIRTY AND DISGUSTING. I FELT WE WERE IN A LAST MINUTE ROOM. THE HOTEL WASN'T A COMFORTABLE STAY.

Excelente ubicación
Pros:

La ubicación del hotel es definitivamente excelente. Está a solo una cuadra de Central Park y muy cerca de una estación de metro con acceso a la línea C. También queda a poca distancia de la estación de 72nd Street y Broadway, donde se puede conectar con otras líneas. En cuanto a movilidad, la ubicación es ideal para recorrer los principales sitios turísticos de Nueva York.

La habitación está bastante bien para lo que necesita un viajero que pasa la mayor parte del día conociendo la ciudad. Si se busca una estadía enfocada principalmente en descansar y disfrutar de las instalaciones del hotel, quizá haya opciones más adecuadas. Pero si el plan es salir a caminar, recorrer Nueva York y regresar al hotel a descansar, cumple perfectamente y nos pareció una excelente opción.

El personal del hotel es muy amable y comprometido, te atienden siempre con alegría y buena disposición.

El desayuno también está bastante bien. Normalmente ofrecen huevos, salchichas o alguna otra proteína, además de opciones de panadería, yogures, leche y cereales. Hay suficiente variedad para empezar bien el día.

El baño estaba limpio y, en general, tuvimos una muy buena experiencia. Nos pareció una excelente opción por su ubicación, comodidad y relación con lo que necesita un turista en Nueva York. Tuvimos una excelente estadía. ¡Muchas gracias!

Cons:

El servicio de limpieza se realiza únicamente por solicitud, algo que personalmente nos pareció bien. Durante nuestra estadía lo solicitamos en tres ocasiones. La primera vez hicieron el aseo de la habitación sin ningún problema. En otra ocasión pedimos principalmente cambio de algunas toallas y esa solicitud no se realizó. La tercera vez volvimos a pedir el servicio y nuevamente hicieron correctamente la limpieza. Probablemente fue simplemente un tema de comunicación con el personal y no representó un inconveniente importante para nosotros.

Si tuviéramos que señalar algún aspecto por mejorar, sería únicamente ese pequeño detalle con una de las solicitudes de limpieza. Por lo demás, nuestra experiencia fue muy buena. Nos pareció una excelente opción por su ubicación, comodidad y por lo bien que funciona como base para conocer Nueva York. Tuvimos una muy buena estadía y volveríamos a considerarlo.

Terrible Experience . Won't return here.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

I had a horrible experience with the bathroom where in we had the Black water coming from Taps. This hotel does not provide drinking water bottles in room & ask us top drink the Tap water. I got severely affected by Bacterial infection after drinking this water. I have all the relevant digital proofs in form of Short Videos of the Black water coming out of taps. When I asked the Front desk ,they were not of much help. They only offered me to refund the resort fee. I want to seriously request Booking.com teams to get me properly compensated ,as I am still sick from Bacterial infection after drinking the water from this Hotel
