| rps132's Full Review: Novotel New York |
To start, the front desk was not friendly or accomodating. I asked for two beds since I was with my sister. They would only give me a room with a king sized bed. I informed them I did not want to sleep in the same bed as my sister and they informed us that there was a sofa bed in the room. The sofa bed turned out to be extremely uncomfortable, not to mention UGLY! Then, we found old food such as bagels, cheese, and jams in the bottom drawer of the desk. The "environmentally friendly" A/C is motion activated and shuts off whenever their is no movement in the room. The room was not very clean and looked nothing like the picture of the room I saw on the website. Upon check out, we asked them to hold our bags and were charged! Most hotels will do this for free, plus tip of course. When we left, we had to take our bags a half a block down to the parking garage. The hotel validates for upto $30 for the first 24 hours. If you stay longer than 26 hours you will get charged for 2 full days. Our parking bill for 2:30 p.m. on Saturday to 5 p.m. on Sunday was $60!!! It was $90 without the hotel's "validation". The location of the hotel was good but that's about it. Novotel is an Accor Hotel that is owned by a FRENCH company. No wonder this place is so unfriendly and horrible. I would never recommend this place nor stay here again!
