My future reservations

I was greeted warmly by the front desk personnel and immediately assigned to the hotel room. I was very pleased with the set-up and cleanliness of the entire facilily that I had access to. I would strongly recommend that my future stays in the Gatsby hotel room be on the 6th floor, preferably with an inside room away from the street traffic noises.

No hot water, loud inside and out

Loud inside and out. The park nextdoor and its parties are out of the hotels control. But other sounds are not: the elevator sounding an alarm as the door closes at each floor. Every room door needing to be slammed shut. The complimentary earplugs on my bedside table were a nice touch, but not nice enough. Also: I had to run the water for 10 minutes before the faucet leaked out luke warm water. No thanks.

Walls a paper thin. Outside noise makes it nearly impossible to sleep if you're on a street side. Rooms are alarmingly small. TV didn't work. Have to use ring doorbell to enter the hotel and their system was down so it was a 10 minute wait until someone came down and manually open the lobby door
