Staff were great. Mixed reviews on room. Also, not sure why extra fees needed to be charged by the hotel, made me wonder as my pre-payments to Expedia in past have been all inclusive.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had a superb stay at Hotel Alameda in Chelsea, NY. The hotel was stylish, comfortable, and perfectly located, but what really stood out was the service. Martin was absolutely fabulous—attentive, warm, and went above and beyond to make my stay exceptional. Highly recommend!

BEWARE... SCAM HOTEL! I was scheduled to check in late after an event, so I did the right thing and called the hotel earlier that day to let them know. The person on the phone assured me it wasn’t a problem and that they would make a note on my reservation. When I checked in late that night, everything seemed fine. But later that week, I noticed an extra $268 charge on my card. When I called to ask about it, I was told it was a “No Show Charge.” This made absolutely no sense since I physically checked in and stayed at the hotel, and nowhere on their website do they mention such a policy. After multiple days and repeated calls, I finally spoke to a manager who agreed to issue a refund. However, even then, they only reimbursed me part of the amount instead of the full charge. This feels like a deliberate scam tactic... charging guests hidden fees after their stay, then refusing to return the full amount even after proof is provided. It’s dishonest and unprofessional. ⚠️ Highly recommend avoiding this hotel and booking elsewhere. There are plenty of other options that don’t resort to shady practices like this.

I am extremely frustrated and disappointed with my stay. I went to check out of hotel and I was on 7th floor. The fire alarm went off briefly in my room. I leave my room to check out and the elevators were not working. I waited over 10 minutes and then called front desk. I explained and the woman hung up or disconnected me. I called back and another woman said they were testing systems. She said they woukd get elevator working...I waited another 10-15 minutes at elevator and still not working. I am 60 years old and I had to carry all of my luggage down 7 stories. When I got to the street level door it woukd not open. I then had to go down to the basement and walked around to find someone to help me. I finally found someone who let me out at street level. I had to re-enter front door of hotel to check out...I was so angry and all I got was an "I am sorry " I will never stay there again. I will put this review on all of the travel sites too. Also, very few channels on TV worked and the thermostat did not work...and the wall to room next door sounds like it is paper thin. Also, I tried for 2 nights to redeem my "free cocktail" voucher and the bartender never approached me...i was the only one sitting at bar. After 20 minutes i left. On the 3rd night, i was able to redeem it but still had to wait 15 minutes and I was the only one sitting there.
