I
find
it
remarkable
that
the
โupscaleโ
brand
within
the
Choice
Hotels
Int.
system
provides
this
level
of
service
to
its
guests.
Some
components
actually
reminded
me
of
our
stay
at
a
Comfort
Inn
motel
in
New
Mexico
on
our
way
to
Denver.
The
entire
stay
was
charged
to
my
credit
card
before
we
had
arrived
in
New
York.
It
even
included
a
$100
security
deposit.
The
first
day
I
had
to
request
additional
(motel
style)
plastic
cups
and
towels
โ
there
were
not
enough
of
either.
The
room
amenities
include
a
1970โs
coffee
maker
with
โRoyal
Cupโ
coffee
which
is
not
just
bad
โ
itโs
undrinkable.
The
hotelโs
bistro
and
lounge
were
closed
(the
lounge
downstairs
open
on
select
days
only),
housekeeping
service
only
after
the
first
three
nights
(and
on
request
only),
no
morning
coffee
or
a
newspaper
in
the
lobby
or
lounge.
That
basically
renders
this
property
into
a
(very)
limited
service
hotel.
Starting
in
the
morning
we
had
to
go
out
to
find
coffee,
breakfast,
etc.
โ
the
little
convenience
shop
in
the
lobby
does
not
even
sell
wine
at
night.
The
floor
planks
in
the
room
squeaked,
the
HVAC
unit
was
incredibly
noisy,
the
bathroom
shower
has
dispensers
for
shampoo,
etc.
On
day
2
we
were
out
of
body
wash
already.
The
room
(1305)
lacks
maintenance,
the
floor
was
not
clean
and
the
tiny
little
trash
can
is
obviously
inadequate
for
two
guests
staying
for
four
(4)
nights.
I
know,
we
could
have
called
for
service
and
for
a
number
of
things,
but
are
we
not
supposed
to
receive
those
services
if
you
pay
(New
York)
hotel
rates,
as
opposed
to
interstate
motel
rates?
Restaurants
and
stores
we
visited
during
our
stay
in
New
York
were
ALL
fully
staffed
and
providing
good
and
prompt
service.
Why
not
this
hotel?
Best
part
of
our
stay
was
our
check-in
with
David,
who
went
out
of
his
way
to
accommodate
us
and
even
helped
loading
our
luggage
on
a
cart.
