Hôtel très impersonnel lié au fait que le nombre d'employés est extrêmement réduit. Pas de service de restauration. pas d'eau chaude certains soirs tardivement. Ascenceur en panne pendant plus d'une journée......

En dessous de tout
Pros:

L’emplacement

Cons:

Manque de petit déjeuner, service et propreté.

אין על ניו יורק בסוף טיול.
Pros:

המלון נהדר. ממוקם מצוין. חדרים טובים

Cons:

הגענו למלון בשש בבוקר טרוטי עיניים אחרי לילה ללא שינה מטיסה ארוכה שנחתה בחמש בבוקר. הדלת הייתה נעולה ולא הצלחנו להיכנס עם הקוד. בסוף איש ניקיון הכניס אותנו, ואז ראינו שיש פקיד קבלה, שלבטח היה מודע לניסיון שלנו להיכנס, אך התעלם. שאלנו אם יש חדר שאפשר להיכנס אליו (תמורת תשלום כמובן), כי הצ'ק אין רק בשעה 16:00. אמרו שהמלון מלא. אחרי בדיקה נוספת אמרו שנוכל להיכנס בשעה 13:00. אחרי בדיקה נוספת אמרו שנוכל להיכנס בשעה 12:00. בשלב זה היינו ממש גמורים. תפסנו שתי ספות בפינה ונרדמנו עליהן. אחרי 29 דקות שינה (מדוד על הגרמין שלי) העיר אותי פקיד הקבלה בצעקות, שאסור לי לישון. השעה הייתה מוקדמת, לא הפרענו לאיש וזה היה רוע לשמו.

Gute Lage, zentral, sicher und sauber.
Pros:

Sehr gute Lage, 50m Luftlinie zum Trump Tower, 5 min zur U–Bahn, 5 min zur Central Park, 15 min laufen zum Times Square, haben uns sicher und wohl gefühlt, der Balkon war ein Knaller, würde ich empfehlen und wieder buchen, wenn ich wieder in NY bin.

Beautiful location and great guest room
Pros:

What a phenomenal location and quality room product. I loved this property and will return. Front desk was very warm and welcoming and got me into a room as quickly as possible. Loved the shower in the guest room - very strong and good bath products. Comfortable bed. Genuinely enjoyed the stay.

Won’t use again , so painful
Pros:

Didn’t visit in the end but booked for 2026 on a flexible booking. Like others it has taken me some time , nearly a month , after cancelling to actually get my funds paid back to me . Was told funds had been sent in August and to check with my Bank , eventually they found an error in the system and started the whole refund process again . This took me multiple chasers etc and the booking agent wasn’t much better , pushing responsibility to Sonder and indeed asking me to provide proof I had even paid upfront . Won’t use again and I’ve also cancelled all future flexible bookings with agent
