The hotel looks like it began a rennovations project that began and ended at the lobby, never making it to the guest rooms. The lobby genuinely looks nice. But the guest rooms are terrible. It looks like a Motel 6 or worse. My first room smelled like a sewer. I am not sure where the smell was coming from (I think the plumbing), but it was pervasive. Also, I did not have a dresser to put my clothes in. I changed rooms. The second room had a dresser, but was missing a desk. (It did have a rickety chair in the corner.) Unfortunately, both dresser drawers were stuffed full of extra pillows and there was small debris at the bottom of each drawers, making the dresser entirely unusable. This room had two beds instead of one, but the comforter was stained on one of them. At that point I had lost interest in sleeping under the covers so I didn't check the other one. The closet rods in both rooms were peeling (paint). Everyone at my conference who was in the Milford said that they had some problem or another with their rooms. I don't know if the hotel is salvageable. The amount of rennovation it would take to make these rooms worth staying in is probably greater than the cost to demolish and rebuild. On the positive side, the hotel staff was very pleasant. But then they probably feel guilty each time they check somebody in. If this hotel were the only option I had to stay during a visit to New York, I would simply cancel my trip.
