This hotel has definitely aged since I started staying here... things like window latches not working and dirty ice machine area, but none of that is a real problem for me. My problem involves their security guard pounding on my door at 9pm, stating neighboring room could smell cigarette smoke. I'm a 59-year old male with emphysema and I could smell it too, but it definitely wasn't coming from my room. I have emphysema.... I can't smoke. Door was open and guard could clearly see that me and my wife were not smoking. I mentioned that it's even getting on my clothes. Guard agreed, left cordially. Now PUBLIC has hit my credit card for $577... their smoking fee. I spoke to Dean, a manager who said he'd look into it and get back to me. Told me three times that since he was a manager, he's DEFINITELY calling back. Never called back. Although that charge is more than the room cost, it isn't worth enough to me to take this to small claims.... but I won't be back. PUBLIC also not issuing me with an invoice for this amount. Very disappointing... be warned.

Rooms are small but that is expected in NYC. The bed was very comfortable. The floor (3d) was quite loud with street noise and party goers at night. The staff were very professional. The electrical controls in the rooms are quite baffling. We kept accidentally pressing buttons that exposed our privacy (opening main blinds) or turned on too many lights and at one point we couldn’t get the bathroom light on at all. The bathroom is surrounded by tinted glass that can be seen through partially. There is no fan in the bathroom.
