This weekend I stayed in this hotel for one night....

This weekend I stayed in this hotel for one night. The rooms are dated. The bed was ok. The bathroom ok(ish). The corridors looks like they were forgotten to be put on the maintenance list in 1972. Overall the whole impression was a reflection of the price.

There was one thing however that really made me put this hotel on the 1 star list: The doorman. He was rude as a doorman can be. When I left the hotel he wanted to take my bag and call a cab for me. I told him that I want to handle my bag myself, because I've had sensitive glass in it. Instead of getting a nice answer like "Of course. Do you need a cab?" from him, he got snotty and puffed at me: "I know how to handle bags. I do this job already for 40 years." (This really needs to be read with a back alley style voice)

Oh well... with an attitude like that it is no wonder that he is stuck in a doorman job for a run down hotel for 40 years.

Luckily there are enough other hotels in New York City which I will enjoy on my next business trip.
