The Carvi Hotel New York Ascend Hotel Collection

Meh

The pillows were good and the towels were clean looking. The staff was friendly and responsive when my TV had no connection.

I didn't appreciate that anyone could walk off the street & go up the elevator. There was a full-time front desk attendant, but they couldn't possibly remember every face of people staying there, so anyone could walk past them and have access to your hotel room door. The room was generally run down. Carpet stains, tired bed & bedding, and corners in bathroom were moldy. The worst thing was the shower. It was very small (& I am a small person) and the shower head was terrible, with no way to adjust it, and there was no pressure.
