Candlewood Lake

The Renwick is a historic hotel. It’s very small. I thought it was odd when I arrived, I got no help with my luggage, but there was nobody there to help me with my luggage. But that’s OK because they couldn’t have been more welcoming once I got to the front desk. The front desk staff at the Renwick could not be more warm and welcoming, they’re funny they’re polite, and they’re professional. they will try to help you and accommodate in any way they can. they have a great understanding of the history of New York as well, which is helpful. Maintenance are helpful, and also kind, smart, resourceful, and will jump to help you with any of your needs. They are New Yorkers, so it’s fun to talk about how New York has changed over the years with them. Part of being in New York is experienced the flavor of New York from people who live there a long time. I found housekeeping, lacking. The room was never dirty, not like that, but I often didn’t have enough towels, didn’t have a bathmat, just small things like that, I continually had to ask for things that housekeeping should’ve already replaced. However, I’m glad they asked if I needed to change my sheets, I don’t change my sheets every day at home no need to change them every day in a hotel. The heating and cooling system is proficient. The hotel is wonderful for international guests. There were many, mostly. Breakfast is yummy, needs more choices. But the hostile male culture at the bar restaurant I chose not to patronize. A NO!
