Nothing - we never got past the front door as the hotel was closed.
Three weeks before we arrived in New York we found out via Social Media posts that the Blakely Hotel had been closed down by the landlord. We contacted the hotel (no response) and booking.com to get a refund but they were not able to assist. Booking.com did eventually get a response from the Blakely who said they would be open by the time we arrived on 18 April. We booked other accommodation (extra expense of $3400AUD) not wanting to show up in NYC on a Friday night at Easter only to find the hotel was still closed. On 16 April when we arrived in LA LuxUrban reached out to say that the Blakely would not be open for part of our stay and they offered us inappropriate accommodation down in the Financial District (one King room for two solo travellers when we had booked a room at the Blakeley that had one king sized bed and a separate room with sofa bed). We declined this offer and asked for a refund. It wasn't until I returned home to Australia that I was able to show booking.com the photos we had taken of the front doors of the Blakely Hotel on 19 April and 23 April proving that it was closed for the duration of our stay that I was able to get a refund.

The hotel is closed permanently from 25March 2025 !!!!!! This info we have found on the door of hotel that were closed too. After 24 hours of trip from Europe we stay for night on street!!!! Nobody from booking.com contacted us in advance !!! We were here 1 month after the hotel was closed !!! Nobody pick up our phone from booking.com online phone number written on booking reservation. No help. Pre-paid booking and no help.

We weren't able to access it. The doors were locked and the property has been impounded by NYC Marshalls
The communication has been poor, both from the company and booking.com. The hotel we were put in instead was at the other end of the city and the facilities weren't working

Our stay was terrible, they relocated us day before to the Washington Hotel which was far away from all of our other reservations. The Blakely was impossible to get ahold of. The staff at the Washington were really rude about our concerns and downgraded us from a king suite to a double room and didn’t see why we were upset. They raised their voices at us when we tried to say something about it. The hotel ran out of soap and the elevator was broken for most of our stay.

Disappointing
It was meh honestly. The size of the room was good and we didn't have any problems with booking like other comments. (for this I recommend sending an email directly to the hotel so that they can confirm they have the reservation, I emailed 2 people just to make sure).
Location is great, has a metro right beside it, nice walking distance from Central Park and Times Square, can't complain on that part.
Super old, not clean, sheets were a bit dirty, towels are falling apart. This hotel need a bit of an investment in cleaning and substitution of sheets and towels. I recommend not touching any floors without flippers or some kind of protection, I don't even want to know how long it's been since they have deeply cleaned those carpets.
I know its a cheaper option and its a bit of an old establishment, but that doesn't excuse lack off cleanliness and horrible state of items that are used for hygiene and sleeping. There has to be a minimum you know what I mean?

The city shut down this property before we even arrived in the city and booking.com ignored our emails asking for help.
One of their sister properties provided us a room (which was impossible to arrange until we had arrived in the city bec neither property would answer or respond to phone messages or emails (or booking.com). The Blakely didn't even post a sign informing people who were showing up at the hotel for their reservation about this option.
I just tried to see if booking.com would let me book a two night stay again right now at the Blakely and yes they will gladly do so despite the hotel being closed.
We have lost all trust in booking.com.

Never encountered such an awful hotel experience since I began to travel 20 years ago. Total scam and it actually doesn’t exist. Be careful.
