Park West Hotel

Location.

Heating was very noisy. Water was slow to heat. No WiFi in rooms. No tea/coffee in rooms.

Slept in a hot sauna all night

Clean

Radiator was steaming all night and made the room stems in the 80’s. Had to put on AC and sleep with it on all night. There was no thermostats and no way to regulate the heat.

Just ok

Nice maintenance staff

Tiny room, old and dated. Far north by the park, nothing to do around that area without getting on the subway.

Value for your Money

Rooms are quiet, very clean, and comfortable.

There is no vending (cash only) or other way to buy emergency supplies. The staff is hit-and miss, some very friendly, others you are sorry to disturb. If traveling with luggage, prepare for a dodgy elevator.

Watch your wallet

Quiet and air conditioned

The staff is rude. The front desk person lied about my room request through this site. He said I asked for one bed and I showed him the reservation. Then he relented and gave me two rooms. He also charged me with the credit card for incidentals for the room. Kayak had already charged me.

Great location but....

Great location on Central Park West. Near the 109 St. train station. Across the street from the park. Safe location. Room was small but clean. Nice toiletries provided.

Bed was not terrible but a bit thin and uncomfortable. No central a/c, just an older window unit that was noisy. No room wi-fi available.

worse than a hostel...We stayed for 1 night and le

Like 1. price (however, the room was not worse the money) 2. Location (proximity to Central Park, along main road) 3. Staff was pleasant to deal with

Dislikes: 1. The only elevator was broken. They gave us a ground floor room. 2. Had to go through a fire escape like door to access the ground level corridor 3. No electronic key. Had to use a metal key (like a house key). 1 key only. 4. Room door was flimsy looking and old. 5. very primitively furnished room. the only desk in the room seemed like a first project of an amateur hobbyist. 6. Closet was in poor shape - did not want to risk putting clothes in there. 7. Beds (double bed room) felt dirty. Did not tucked ourselves in because we were afraid there might be bugs insider the sheets. We slept with clothes on, on the bedsheet. 8. Really poor and small TV. Unknown brand. 9. Location - too far from everything except for Central Park.

The doorman was friendly and tried to be helpful.

No one seemed willing to really help when we had a problem. We had to call every day to get a complete set of hand towels, bath clothes and regular towels. The plugin would not keep the items plugged into them. My hairdryer plug kept falling out. The bathroom fan, which had to come on with the light, was so loud it gave me a headache. You have to let the water run for several minutes before it even tries to get hot. They don't have ABC on the TV. I asked if they didn't have it or I just wasn't working the TV right. The lady at the front said she didn't know if they had it or not and didn't know how to find out. You have to pay $10 for 24 hours of Internet service. Called the front desk and let it ring at least 30 times. She didn't answer. Went down stairs and she is sitting at the front desk. Just didn't want to answer the phone I guess.
