This poor hotel is literally falling apart
Front desk couldn't check us in at 5 pm because of broken ACs and water leaks in their available rooms, needed an hour or so to find a room for us. Everywhere you looked was peeling wallpaper, scuffed furniture, broken fixtures. Nothing in this hotel has been repaired or replaced in decades. Toiletries and towels were bare-minimum and staffing was skeletal, even on a weekend. The front desk didn't even have toothpaste. At least it was clean, and the AC and plumbing worked. But don't expect anything more than a bed and a bathroom in a convenient midtown location.

Room that was booked was unavailable due to broken a/c and plumbing. After 15 minute wait at reception, we were placed in a shabby room that also had broken a/c. Maintenance worker was rude. Management made no response to our request for a different room, upgrade or refund. So we left

Hotel has not refunded money promised for downgrading our room due to AC not working. Incredibly difficult to get a hold of them. Love the location. Manager has deflected attempts to speak to me. Will update when response comes in. Hope they make it right

It’s good
The Blakely is a super nice hotel with nice people who work there. We asked to check in a little early due to our earlier arrival than planned and they were so accommodating. However, the blankets are not comfortable and the air conditioner leaked until the carpet was soaked completely on one side of the bed. After one cleaning, they never gave us any towels and we had to go ask for them. They didn’t seem to understand we needed enough towels for a family of 4 and we ended up sharing the entire trip. The atmosphere is cute though and the people are nice so I would probably choose the Blakely again due to that and location.

Stay away from 203
Check in was smooth, we were early and they allowed us to store our bags while we went out. When we returned they told us the room we paid for was unavailable, and gave us rm 203 for the night. The AC was broken and pumped warm air. We told the desk and they told us twice that theyd send some one to look at it, and no one ever showed up. We also had to call for extra pillows and towels, and were told that there was a towel shortage... We finally were given some fans from the lobby to make the night slightly bearable. Next morning we asked again about the AC or to change rooms. At approx 2pm we were told that they could accomodate and we needed to move our stuff asap. New room had AC, however it leaked all over the floor, and the carpet was a pond.. We didnt complain this time, just happy to sleep comfortably. Rooms were large, with a kitchenette area.

First of all, the price per night was extortionate for the quality. We had to stay an extra night due to flight cancellation and it was half the price of our original booking. Comfortable bed but noisy old AC and no tea/coffee facilities. Told we could buy some from local supermarket.

We've stayed at the Blakely for years and it has been like home for us. Proximity to theatre is key. Also are amenities like fridge, freezer, microwave, glassware, plates and microwave (and the wine opener) all present in it's new incarnation. We miss the wine glasses and the restaurant.. All in all, happy to see this property being revived.

AVOID THIS PLACE - SHADY AND BROKE DOWN
Hotels.com and I tried several times to reach the property prior to my stay to request a rollaway bed, no reply to several attempts by both. Air conditioning Broken throughout hotel. Several (probably every) Guests complained of broken A/C throughout the building - In hottest week of a sweltering Summer in NY! Several guests also heard complaining about things being stolen from their room. Something went missing from our room. Phones in room to front desk all broken - you have to go out in the sweltering hotel to ask for anything. Towels all mismatched and cheap and scratchy. If I could give less than 0 out of 10 stars I would. Worst. Week. EVER!!!!

Overall this hotel was a decent for a vacation on a budget. The fridge and microwave were a huge bonus for heating up breakfasts in the morning. However, we ended up in 3 different rooms over the course of 5 days due to the AC freezing up. When the AC was at its best, the rooms were still not cooler than 75 degrees. The staff was very accommodating and more than happy to switch our rooms. The water filter system only fills a 20 oz bottle before it runs out so we bought gallons of water from a nearby market. The location is amazing as it is right near the subway entrance. Overall, I would have paid more money to stay elsewhere (had I known what I know now) but it didn’t ruin our vacation by any means.
