Wyndham Garden Chinatown

Pros: -it’s near the subway (Grand st and Canal st) -They offer breakfast meal cards -it’s near little Italy and in Chinatown - the rooms are spacious and include a mini fridge -it’s fairly clean and organized -it’s affordable if you book early Cons: -the thermostat was set to 66 degrees and I tied to turn the heat on during my 3 day stay but it wouldn’t budge. I think I have a cold now or something. -it’s on the corner of a street so you can hear everything from taxi to police to fighting at night -the breakfast isn’t great. It’s okay if you are in a rush. -the shower wouldn’t close so I had to put towels all over the floor to dry the water. They give u a cheap shower curtain but there’s no door. So it’s just a half open shower with a cheap curtain. -the top sheet on the bed doesn’t budge. It’s really thin too. So bring your own blanket. -there’s no bell hop or customer service besides the front desk. You have to figure things out on your own. -the halls and spaces are super narrow. I was in the corner and you could barely find it.

This is a midrange older hotel with the charm and faults that comes with it. But what makes a big difference is that the staff feel proud about making your stay great and they succeed. From the receptionists who solve your potential problems, to the service guy who remembers you and says hi again because he actually remembers having seen you just before and to the breakfast staff who serves a solid, not extravagant, but good meal and finally to the cleaning staff who do their job thoroughly. I stayed here for work and can warmly recommend staying here. Thank you.

We had a great time staying here! Staff was very friendly and helpful. Easy parking nearby. Traveling from the Midwest, we had a lot of questions about how to best navigate the parking situation and everyone was very helpful at this hotel. Breakfast was good, you get two free breakfast vouchers, and kids under the age of 16 can eat for free so our whole family was able to eat for free. Love the view from our window and the beds were comfortable. I would definitely choose to stay here again!

Priceline lied on the description, but I'm not going to fault the hotel for that~ no pool/spa and smaller, snug rooms. *Some hidden fees(breakfast and return deposit)* They check your bags pre and post check in/out which was a lifesaver to not lug our stuff around or sit and wait with it and we instead fit more activities in! (Thank you, thank you!) The shower and AC was amazing after a long day out and about! Clean and comfortable room. The balcony does have a view of the Empire State building and is beautifully lit up at night! It is close to so many exciting little things to do~ the vibes change every 6 blocks or so, which was fun! We found an awesome bakery right down the road called Luna and we watched some HS kids play kickball. E-Bikes are everywhere and the subway is very convenient from here. There are 3 restaurants on site; sports bar/beer garden, Ramen bar with sake and a rooftop bar/lite bites. Free wifi, breakfast vouches and daily maid service! Staff is helpful and friendly. Lobby has area pamphlets and nice seating. Overall great experience!
