The Blakely by LuxUrban

Great location, walkable to a lot of tourist attractions that I planned for. Good subway connection. Room was big and got everything I need (we except a kettle). My room had microwave, fridge with freezer, a pantry sink. Just a tiny complain of the shower situation, didn't get hot water in certain time of the day (usually late night). Overall, good stay.

I traveled solo, and it was plenty of space and perfect location with a lot of stuff around.

The service was great. The location was ideal! Walking distance to Times Square, Central Park, Carnegie Hall ect

Roof top restaurant is closed since pandemic but advertised as open. Cleanliness is below expected and front desk stuff would not even call taxi for us while leaving. Super old amenities and entire furnishing. No hair dryer nor basic kitchen/ bathroom supplies.

This hotel is a fantastic option if you have the right expectations. Pros: Fantastic location, huge rooms (for NYC), clean, no extra charge for 3 or 4th guest in 2-queen rooms, great price Cons: This seems like it was previously a 4 or 5 star hotel that hasn't had much maintenance in the last 30 years and is now a limited service hotel offering reasonable prices. It is clean but a little rough around the edges (could use some paint and wallpaper repairs, some stains in carpets, etc). Staff are very nice but sparse, so you may need to have a little patience at check-in, towel requests etc. Overall, I think it's a good value for money, especially if you're a family and don't want to pay for an extra room for the kids. The pictures are very accurate in terms of what the place will look like, though they don't show some of the slightly shabby aspects.

Very rude staff. No shampoo or conditioners given. They have no towels too. Extremely rude staff. They didn’t care at all.
