Stayed at the apartment in Dec. 2012. There was no clothes-hanger, no wardrobe.... just chairs, beds, a sofa and one table with shaky feet. Kitchen was more or less ok, bathroom too, but the whole setup was spartan. Checkin/Doorman ? No, you press the ´help´ button on a call box.

This is not a hotel! Don't stay here. There is no front desk. You talk to a tiny box that calls some lady on her cellphone. She was incompendent and unhelpful. We stood in the rain for 20 mins while she tried to run our credit card. We ended up leaving. Not a real hotel it's an apartment with a... More

Regarding our recent stay at the UN Apartments in August 2011. The apartment was generally not clean especially regarding the bathroom, and shower. The sofa-bed did not pull out. We called and asked to have pillow cases, bedspreads, towels, and blankets delivered and we were told that some would be brought up. None were delivered during the duration of our... More

50 character limit is unjust in describing this hotel from HELL! It is a creepy place with no internal security on the door. The housekeeper keyed in our pass code and made me wonder...how many people in her family now have permission to rob us blind or worse. A camping trip would have offered more comfort and security. It literally... More

To be fair, these apartments are extremely well located if you are working at UN HQ or around UN Plaza. But that's where the good news ends. Upon arrival, this building has no signage and no reception desk. There is an intercom. You are not given a front door key and must press the intercom to enter the building everytime.... More

Filthy, decrepit, ripoff. Scummy, never been cleaned. Kitchen, bathroom, etc. are crap. This place has no staffing, they let you in remotely. Building has some apartments like these that rent out and some permanent residents. But to make it even worse, these apartments are very, very dangerous! The codes to the apartments have been spread around....I was there an hour... More
