Room door was basically hanging on by a thread. Almost none of the outlets worked. Next to the conditioning unit the wall was ripping apart.

The elevator barely would stop on my floor, so lots of stairs which is crazy to charge 150 $ for “resort” fees when NOTHING WORKS the first room I was in the plugs didn’t work so they moved me to a different room where every time I left I had to get a new key because it wouldn’t open , happened 10+ times Was in a good area if you want to be close to time square but for how much I paid I should’ve stayed somewhere better.

Neglected to say the least! Black Mold around the air Conditioning unit! Paint entirely of that section of wall. Holes throughout that area of wall. Cords/Wires hanging unsafely in the air. Absolutely disgusting! I have pictures that I’lll be sending to the Department of Health, I’m sure they’ll have alot more issues than just mine with Gallivant Hotel. Definitely would not recommend to anyone.
AC Unit in my room. My TV didn’t work in 1st room so they moved me and said they are fully booked so wouldn’t be able to keep moving around. Thank God it was only 2 nites.
**Clearly, I DO NOT RECOMMEND The Gallivant Hotel, Times Square!!

For a one night stay it wasn’t bad. All that was needed was a place to sleep. The hotel itself is a little worn down but it’s nothing too fancy. There was a cold draft throughout the night which kept waking us up but other than that it had a bed and a ceiling.

Rooms were run down, had to change rooms because the first ones heater didn’t work. They don’t change your sheets at all during your stay, but will come in and clean. The ice machine also didn’t work. Some staff were nice and others were rude. Definitely will find a better hotel next time.
