Nyma The New York Manhattan Hotel

Filthy Water, Terrible Smells, and non-functioning

Pros: The fact that they charged be a huge amount of money for the worst hotel experience of my life, because who doesn't love being kicked in the nuts?

Cons: It was suppose to be cheap, however, not terrible. Three big reasons not to (if one is not enough) would be: the water, the smell, and the bathtub. Lets just start with the water: disgusting. I tried to make coffee, putting it in the pot I noticed it was not clear. In fact, the water had a dark misty color, the kind of color that is shown on television to depict developing countries in Africa.This made me want to literally throw up. I shouldn't have to worry about catching things in the water when I am staying at a hotel! Now if water doesn't bug you, maybe your nose will convince you to stay away from here. If there was an air freshener called cheap weed that a 7th grader sells you, that fragrance would be the sole one used in this hotel. The place smelled of stale weed so badly I felt as if I was getting high simply riding in the elevator. Finally, the bathtub... to say the least it was non functioning. A lot of people when on vacations, including myself, baths are something frequently enjoyed. This is not something anyone will ever be able to enjoy at this hotel, because, besides the disgusting water, the bathtubs don't work! Who would've guessed?! If you are looking for a place that has disgusting, reeks of cheap weed and has a non-functioning bathroom come on down to Nyma. If not just sleep in a homeless shelter, at least their they have clean water.

Decent hotel in good location

Pros: Great location and adequate, clean rooms. I would say it's closer to 2 1/2 stars than 3 stars.

Cons: They only have 2 elevators for a 17 story hotel, and they are on the slow side. You can wait for quite a while sometimes for one.

Not what I expected

Cons: I booked this hotel because of the reviews. Buyer beware! The staff at the front desk were rude. The place was run down--the wallpaper in my room was peeling--and had a funny smell. If I had to describe the hotel in a single word, it would be "cheap." I will not be returning.
