Staylist AI overview · based on 8 public guest reviews

“Fresh UWS boutique, night-shift noise”

The Wallace Hotel is a fresh 2020-built Upper West Side boutique — spacious spotless rooms, super comfortable beds, thoughtful lighting with bathroom nightlights, free re-orderable fridge water, a lively lounge with live music some nights, warm staff (Betty praised), and Central Park minutes away; the Queen Deluxe oddly beats the King for comfort. Two stays went badly though: workers talked and laughed beside a first-floor room all night despite repeated complaints, and an interior last room placed giant machinery beside the bed — settled only through platform mediation.

Service
Friendly staff; night team ignored complaints.
Rooms
Spacious comfy rooms; one dire interior.
Location
Quiet UWS, minutes to Central Park.
Noise
Staff chatter kept a guest up all night.
