A big disappointment – Tiny rooms, noisy air conditioning, overpriced, a con (given the price). Only positive is the good mid-town location (if that's what you need). Stay somewhere less pretentious - this once-trendy place will leave you tired in the morning, but for all the wrong reasons

bogus boutique – rooms are like closets, paint peeling, with an airconditioner and cheap venetian blinds w/no curtains. beds are one step up from a tatami mat w/an egg crate on top... we paid $120 per night thru hotwire and it was a HUGE ripoff - even for new york. if i paid more i would have been pissed. i vow to never stay in an ian shrager hotel again. although i give the guy credit, he can call it "hip" and "bohemian" when it's really "cheap" and "confused"
