You need to be tolerant of everything in New York, including hotels.
Because it was conference week, all New York hotels were extremely expensive and had slow service.
When checking in, I emphasized that I wanted a king-size bed room, but when I pushed the door open, I found twin beds... After a lot of hassles, I was given 2 coupons for 5 days of stay, which allowed me to go to the canteen downstairs to get 4 bottles of water, and then there was no complementary water... Only hotels in New York dare to do this and are not afraid of customer complaints.
During my stay at Sheraton Times Square, because Barclay was holding its annual conference, the subway was really slow, and I had to wait for more than 5 minutes every time. There was also a small Starbucks in the hotel restaurant, but the coffee machine was often broken, and it was impossible to make a cup of hot coffee...
Then the small room could hardly fit my two suitcases... The faucet water pressure was low, the water flow was very small, and it was very uncomfortable to take a shower.
As for the hotel gate, haha, the traffic situation there was really a mess. I witnessed a traveler who was hit by a passing citibike. This happened every day.
The only advantage is the convenient transportation. It is convenient to go to Broadway to watch a play or Central Park. There is a subway entrance right outside the hotel (but no one wants to take the New York subway...)
What to do, this is New York...
