8/10 Good
"It was very cool and convenient for us to stay at this hotel. However: when we arrived, there was a flood in the stairs, elevators were not working and we were unable to go to the roof to see the pool and the view. Unfortunate, these things happen. Also I was unaware, that even guests had to pay to use the roof top pool area after a certain time. It should be included with the stay. There was no exhaust fan in the bathroom. Nowhere to hang wet towels, other than on hooks so close together it was difficult to fit to bath towels side by side. The walk in shower floor is slippery, the glass partition, insufficient to stop water from getting out onto the bathroom floor. Fortunately I brought my own lotion and a shower cap, which was removed by the cleaning staff from off the sink vanity. I can't imagine trying to hang a winter coat on the hooks hanger in that area. It was obvious the rooms were designed by a man that did not spend the night. The food in the restaurant/food hall was good and the staff delightful. I am grateful the mid-century terminal has found a new purpose. I have fond memories of visiting when my Mom worked for BOAC at the IAB & later BA in the new terminal to welcome the Concord."

"This hotel has the best water pressure in the shower east of the Mississippi. The drain is a little slow, but you won’t care. You should book a room here if only to take a shower! But it gets better! The beds are well tended and extremely comfortable. The staff is outstanding and you’re close to LGA. You couldn’t ask for anything more!"
