Handlery Union Square Hotel

Handlery Union Square Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel upgraded us to a suite at no additional charge which was appreciated but the room was very dated and minimally needs new carpeting. The room was clean with the exception of the ceiling vents which were covered (hanging) in some sort of black dirt/dust. The bed was comfortable but the pillows had no shape or comfort."
