There is NO HEAT. Was told by the front desk that the hotel only has a boiler and it’s off for the season. In April. With nighttime temperatures in the 30s. This should have been made very clear when booking. It’s extremely old and in bad need of an update in all areas.

Check-in was friendly and prompt. Our room was very nice and clean. Not much for breakfast so we ended up walking to the Reading Terminal. Only issue I had was I only used my credit card for check-in at this hotel, no other place. 3 hours later I received notification that my card was used to order pizza for $60.71. I had to call my credit card and cancel it leaving me without my credit card for the remainder of my trip.

Room was incredibly small. Bathroom was the size a phone booth. The building is very old and is a shock if one is used to modern chain hotels. For example, the bathroom was tiled in tiny mosaic beige textured tiles that look dirty even though they are likely not. Having said that, the room was clean and the towels thick. TV did not work. Elevator smelled of oil and broke while I was there.

This was a total disappointment except the staff. The staff we met were friendly an competent. The room was dirty. Mold in the air conditioner, something under the heaters. This is an old hotel in need of some serious renovations. We came here for our anniversary and it was so bad that we just decided to wait and celebrate at home. I want to be clear, the staff was super great. The hotel is just run down.

We loved that this is an old-school, in-town, independent hotel. Unlike some of the corporate apartment and airbnb proliferators, this is a proper little hotel. 24 hour front desk with lovely staff, fireplace lit, pleasant breakfast -- and super convenient to everything in Washington Square West/***borhood.

Delightful older and small hotel experience. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Breakfast (included) was very basic, but the afternoon wine/cheese reception was lovely. Staff was friendly, especially Jay S. at the front desk. City Center Location is wonderful.
