We checked into the hotel and were place on a floor with the maintenance staff. Every morning at 7am all the way through until 10pm, you could hear the staff talking loudly or filling the hallways with garbage, sheets, carts, etc. (see photo). Further, during our stay, we came to find out the hotel had received a notice from the NY commissioner of health and mental hygiene for operating without a permit. The notice was dated in March but it was still on the front door of the hotel. It wasn't clear if the hotel should have been operating at all.
