This isn't a 4 star hotel, it's a roach motel.

1.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 17 May 2024
This is genuinely the worst hotel I've ever stayed at, I've been to nicer motels. It was clear the second that I walked into the building (past a broken front window) that it wouldn't be as advertised. Every single part of the building was run down; walls covered in scuffs and chipped paint.

It only got worse in the room. The walls again were covered in scuffs and chipped paint, lights were hanging out of the ceiling, shower looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a year. The balcony door hardly opened and the cushions on the chairs outside were full of stains. The curtain was absolutely covered in holes.

Location is abysmal as well, it's in a very rough neighborhood. The view across the river is decent, but it's ruined by the industrial wasteland right in front of it.

Any good reviews of this place HAVE to be fake, this place is a roach motel.

Room with a great view of the Queensboro Bridge. Clean facility, nice , and helpful staff. Room was great!
Close to Woodside as we did a foodie tour trying out filipino restaurants.
Great spot, close to the city without the expensive city hotel rates.
Will come again for sure.
Thanks again for a great stay.

Room was clean and as advertised. Staff was very friendly. No breakfast or microwave in room, but we knew that so not an issue.

Business trip, last minute booking. Staff was friendly, accommodating and professional. Place was clean as a whistle. No complaints. Free upgrade to a balcony room. Will likely book again and invite friends :)

When we first came the room was a bit disappointing because of maintenance reasons. When we told them they handled it so good by upgrading us! Also the staff is really nice and helpful!
I have to be honest tho, the rooms where a bit old a can use a big cleaning and fresh up.

Beautiful view of the bridge and city. Rooms were modern and clean. Rooms had toiletries and the beds were very comfy. Checkin and checkout was a breeze. Front desk staff were exceptional! Very accommodating and went above and beyond. Will definitely stay here again.

Room tip: The Ravel Hotel sends a text for early check-in. There's some street parking near by. Plenty of restaurants and lounges in the area.
