I had a very nice two-night staycation at The Standard. I booked a Premium Deluxe Room and requested a quiet room, which put me on a lower floor. Despite being lower to the ground, the view from my room was still fantastic, which is what I wanted. Being a New Yorker, I had no interest in seeing more buildings on my vacation, so it was nice to be able to look downtown and onto the river. It's also cool seeing how the High Line goes right through the building. The room was also a perfect setup for me: not large (what NYC hotel room is?), but efficiently laid out, with a usable sitting area with table, and separate shower/tub area from the toilet/sink area. I enjoyed the soaking tub, but I concur with other complaints that for a luxe hotel at a luxe price, you would expect some sort of bath products to make the experience nicer. Thankfully, I read other reviews and knew to bring some bath salts with me. I called Housekeeping to ask for a pair of slippers to use in-room, as well as a kettle. The service was friendly and prompt each time. This was helpful, as when I initially checked in, one of the hotel staff members had a bit of a snobby demeanor. Everyone else I encountered was great, though. I felt the room was understandably a bit drafty, with the ceiling to floor windows, but I adjusted the temperature as needed, and was fine. The location is great: Chelsea Market, Pier 57, Little Island, and shopping nearby. Overall, I had a fantastic stay!
