All you need to know about Loft 523!!
Great location near Canal Street, really nice room and building with a minimalist feel, and awesome price. We loved it! However, to forewarn those looking for quiet, restful sleep... this is not it!! Loved the cement floors and big windows, but we stayed on a Sat night and it was LOUD! Party bus came down the little one way street around 2am and it was like we were partying with them! The music from outside was echoing in the cement room!! We did not mind it, but those reading this review may want to know that! Also, you have to check in a block down the street at International House, the building itself is literally just rooms right now, no personnel in the building; we were not aware of all this when booking. Not an issue for us, but would have liked to of known all the details in advance. We will def being staying again, we still loved it!

The maid took my bathrobe after the first day and never gave me a new one. Because of the air conditioning you really need one. The sink was clogged the entire time I was there - maid would have noticed that, and the lighting was poor. Maid also didn’t replace tissues or toilet paper when out, but I’m a big boy so I did it. Bed was comfortable as were pillows. Location was excellent. Windows allow noise from street, but not the bed of the world. Did sleep well there. Oh - the shower heads are lame.

Staff was very friendly. It’s in a convenient area so you can walk every where,but the shower did not have enough pressure, the room had a weird smell and it didn’t look like the pictures. It was like staying in an abandoned building. The lights in the bathroom are very dim.

Was informed check in was at sister property prior to arriving, so then had to walk from one hotel to the other at 1am. The room was located in an isolated building without staff. Didn’t feel safe as a woman traveling alone…

Our room did not have a functioning iron and coffee maker. The window shade was broken and not replaced, just left on the slide with a thin curtain covering the window. The TV was placed by the side of the bed, a very awkward location. We did not have a microwave, only plus - the staff at the International House were courteous and able to heat our food up. The best part of this hotel, it was in close proximity to tourist locations.

Do NOT recommend.
I’ll give them one star for the aesthetic…other than that it’s garbage. You have to check in at a completely different hotel then you have to find the loft which does not have a sign. The attendant at check in was amazing, but past him everything else was awful. There is no parking for the hotel so I had to pay an additional $40 for parking. The entire first floor of this hotel is abandoned… amenities mentions a bar, but don’t expect that because it is completely empty and cleared out. There was not a SOUL on the first floor. Just an empty bar and an air mattress. Then you get to your room where the floors are nasty and sticky. The giant studio light that was in the room had a busted bulb so that couldn’t even be used. It was extremely humid so I woke up dripping sweat multiple times. Along with hearing every footstep the person in the other room is taking. The showers are AWFUL. Not even enough water pressure to knock the dust off of you. No shower door so every shower you flood the whole bathroom and shiver the entire time. bath tub was great other than the fact the water came out looking like milk. No drink machines no vending machines. There’s a mini fridge but it comes empty. Stay ANYWHERE else other than here.

Nowhere on the website does it share that the property is run by International House around the corner. There is no staff inside the Loft - all check-in and valet parking occurs at IH, and amenities listed (gym, spa, bar) are at IH, not the Loft. If you try to unload your car in front of the Loft, you are blocking traffic on a 1-lane, 1-way street. Absolutely ridiculous experience.

First there was no hot water and second room had no water pressure. So it was like taking a shower in a water fountain. If the loft actually had staff and the bar that was shown and seating area. It would be a decent place. But nothing is there and have to check in at their sister hotel half block away. Expedia should remove them from there sight.
