The facilities of the Hotel were good but besides a couple of staff members, most of them needed to work very hard on showing a better service to customers. First of all, the lady who helped me to book the room over the phone was very sharp, no polite, and insensitive. After reserving my room, I called back to tell her that I did not receive her email with the details of my reservation, she said that she had sent it already, I said that I did not receive it and she asked me to call later. three days later, I called to the 1-800 phone number and finally a customer representative found out that my name and email address was wrong, fixed it and sent me the email back.
I arrived to the hotel expecting a parking lot that they don't have, I call them and asked for parking directions and somebody directed me to a private outside parking that doesn't connect directly to the hotel, which charge $25.00 per night. The first morning in the hotel we had a buffet breakfast in the main restaurant, then the second day we went to the restaurant and they told me that I was suppose to go to another floor to get it. No one had told me that; the brochure reads that breakfast was until 11:30, while downstairs the staff told me that was until 11:00 am. Finally, we ate downstairs, where they charged me about $97.00, but one of the staff members gently gave me three coupons of $25.00 when I told him that my reservation included breakfast, so I end up paying the rest, which wasn't that bad. I said to the lady in the restaurant that I was expecting a better service in a 4 stars hotel, to which she said "YOU ARE IN BROOKLYN" and I was simply SPEECHLESS.
