Plainview Holidays

The location is great. The smell was bad! Our room smelled like a litter box with chlorine everywhere. We would have moved rooms but the hotel smelled similarly. We could have switched hotels but were only there for one night. Bed was harder but comfy and pillows were great but it was just a smelly place. The pictures online looked good but it was just good photography. It was ok but we wouldn’t stay again. There are much better places in the city.

Ink 48 definitely feels like it’s missing some heavy duty management. The staff was lovely, and everything seems clean, but overall it’s just a bit faded and unpolished. In our room, the hotel phone wasn’t working, the clock was set to be wrong time, the air vent seemed to be hanging on for dear life, and the mini bar was stocked with bottles of water from the bodega down the street, literally with these neon pink price stickers still on them. The hotel roof is managed by a different company, and they did not seem to have any hustle or desire to welcome hotel guests up to the roof. I know that has nothing to do with the hotel, but it is on the property and you would think that the rooftop staff would make a point of fussing a little extra over hotel guests. As I said, staff seemed very friendly, but it did look like a ragtag bunch with untucked shirts, a laissez-faire attitude, et cetera. For 750 bucks a night, for the overall stay I have to say I was a little disappointed

Located outside of midtown, this location is good for those looking to get away from the crowds of midtown. The front desk and restaurants are all on one level meaning those that are stairs challenged will make out fine.

The staff were very nice and helpful. The room was cleaned and the food was good.
