Duck Pond Park

There are hotels that have "shabby chic" and there are hotels that, like this one, are just neglectfully shabby. What a disappointment for the amount of money spent on the room... that there is no real lobby is a structural choice they made, which is sad. That they refuse to turn the coffee station into a bar at night (when the outdoor bar is closed due to weather) is a poor choice, like they don't care about the guests... that they leave a window air-condition in the window when it's cold and have a tape keep the plastic together--and the outside noise and cold air come into the first-floor room, is a choice, as well. The curtains could use rehanging, the towels are so frayed that they tear, and despite claiming it's a "deluxe" room, there is neither light not end-table on one side (and you have to jump over the bed to get to your side of the bed (when coupled).

The best airbnb Ive stayed at in New York with the best price for our family of 6. The place was so clean, amenities looked brand new. It had a homey feel to it, my kids didnt want to leave. We will definently be booking again in the future.
