Duane Street Hotel Tribeca, Sonder

TL DR: only get this place if you only care about location, have reasonable independence, want privacy, and DO NOT NEED HOTEL AMENITIES. Full review: The main reason to book this hotel would be for its location. Its location in Tribeca is awesome. A number of destinations, particularly, wall street, the Brooklyn bridge, and the world trade center memorial, are walking distance. The rooms, however, are on the smaller end, and the hotel service is almost non existent. The facilities and amenities were acceptable. Do note that the front desk is only in available from 9am to 11pm so if you encounter issues outside those times, it will be problematic. For example, I was emailed the door key and room key a day prior to arriving. I printed the same in cause i had no internet service, as i was travelling from another country. I also emailed them through the email provided that we would be arriving at around 12 midnight. However, upon arriving at the hotel door, it would not work. I and my wife had to stay out, in the cold of new york city, with 5 luggages, for a good 30 minutes. We emailed them and used the online chat function, but both were useless. We sat down in a nearby dunkin donuts to figure stuff out. and without any held from sonder or marriot, we found out that there was a discrepancy with the codes emailed and the codes in the app. Fortunately, my wife as able to rummage through the discrepancy and was able to acquire the appropriate codes. And thus, we finally able to get into the hotel and into our room. Considering the price point of the rooms, aside from the location, this is not a good choice.

This place is a DUMP and should be avoided if you want a peaceful stay in a clean spot. Rooms are teeny, tiny; Windows were streaked and filthy; bathroom was utterly disgusting; Towels were like sand paper; luggage rack and ironing board were stored under the Bed! Who looks there for anything unless you dropped something?! You need a code to enter the building and your room because they have skeletal staffing- maybe 10am-4pm. Overall it was a terribly unpleasant experience and not worth the money spent. I can't believe this place is a Marriott property and will never be staying at this abomination of an "apartel".

Great stay

The room was very nice and clean, the room offered Netflix and YouTube (if you have accounts) which was a very nice feature and the water pressure in the shower was also very nice! Would stay there again! :)

It was a flexible and easy process! I appreciate the luggage lockers also. That was a big bonus!
