Bottom Line
What we loved
Great location: across the street from the Manhattan Bridge pedestrian path; less than half a mile to the Canal Street subway station.
Modern updated rooms, with great artwork. Concrete walls which might be a negative to some.
Courteous staff: Hotel has a texting system to which they were very responsive.
2nd-floor lounge area: great space with coffee & tea along with utensils & a microwave.
What we did not like
No pool or spa is available at the hotel.
No robes or slippers were provided in the room (could be requested).
The bathroom design was not functional (no shower wall to prevent leaking, which resulted in a pool of water in the bathroom after each shower).
The hotel has 4 elevators to service 21 floors which resulted in frequent waiting. We were on the 5th floor and used the staircase instead.
Verdict
This was a phenomenal stay in a great hotel..
We had to downgrade our room as it was not available when we arrived at 9 am. The king-standard room was nice, definitely wished we had a couch to lounge on though.
The hotel is in the heart of Chinatown, with an amazing rooftop bar (The Crown). They allowed us to "visit" for a bit, however in order to order we needed a reservation which came with a $75 per person minimum.
For $101/night (plus taxes), this hotel was a great find & we will definitely return.
