The room was visibly old, poorly maintained, noisy, and dirty. Dust, stains, and grime were everywhere. Soundproofing was terrible, and even the fridge was unusually loud.\n\nAfter reporting the issues, the manager\u2019s only solution was a room upgrade. The staff did help move and reorganize our belongings and specifically noted that we had two refrigerated gifts in the fridge \u2014 yet somehow, those items were lost during the move.\n\nUnfortunately, the upgraded room (Park Studio) was no better \u2014 actually worse. Upon entering, the bedding was wrinkled and looked unkempt, there were visible stains, limescale, water marks, mold in the corners, cracked walls, and even leftover food residue in the oven that clearly hadn\u2019t been cleaned. It was honestly unbelievable for a hotel of this reputation.\n\nAt this price point, guests should not have to tolerate such conditions. Spending more money should mean more comfort, not more frustration \ud83d\ude43.\n\nIf you\u2019re choosing The Mark mainly for location, there are other luxury hotels just one block away. I haven\u2019t personally stayed at them, so this isn\u2019t a direct recommendation \u2014 but it\u2019s hard to imagine they could be worse than this experience.","rating":1,"time_description":"5 months ago"},{"author":"Vivian Darkbloom","text":"Value for money it is not. The lobby is very unappealing and not welcoming, so that there is not any inclination to hang out in the lobby waiting for your partner or guest or anyone else. Furthermore the hotdog stand outside means everything in the front of the ground floor including the bar smells of hotdog. Which frankly has the opposite effect of coffee. The dining room is perhaps the most disappointing feature. Very dark and dingy and overall unappealing.  I went in there and a woman was eating a takeaway pizza out of a box next to me while I paid $12 for a ginger ale.\nThe proximity to the park is the main plus. If you stay in your room that is a plus too. Outside the rooms the hotel is a disappointment and it's hedonistic utility is low. They make much of the John Lobb shoe cleaning service but the guy said he could not clean my suede shoes! I am hoping never to stay again.","rating":2,"time_description":"6 months ago"}]},"attached":false}
