Real Guest Experiences & Ratings
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the hotel's superb location right across from the 9/11 Memorial, making it ideal for exploring Lower Manhattan, especially with easy access to subway lines and the PATH station at the Oculus for convenient travel to JFK Airport. Many appreciate the clean, relatively spacious rooms that include amenities like a refrigerator, microwave, and refillable water stations, with some rooms offering stunning views. While a few guests have mentioned issues with the cooling system being directly above the bed, the availability of coffee, tea, and water in the lobby, along with options like the nearby French bakery, Le Pain Quotidien, for breakfast, generally enhance the overall experience.

The room itself was disappointing. the cooling system blew directly overhead. I found it quite uncomfortable. the water flow in the shower was also very weak. i'm not sure why that wasn't addressed before my stay.

the hotel provided refillable water bottles, which i found acceptable.
the ventilation in my room was loud. it was also very cold. i asked for two extra blankets, but i only received one. someone was supposed to check the ventilation, but this did not happen (i guess it was not a priority).

i found a few issues . the early check-in app did not work, even after i received a confirmation that it did. i arrived to find my room was not ready. despite there being no other guests checking in, i was told there were no other rooms available except one. i took it, only to discover a large vertical support pillar was right in the middle of the room. the window was small and completely obscured by hvac piping, so i could barely see daylight.
