The foyer on the Bowery Grand Lodge was one room with a entrance desk hidden largely behind a half-glass wall, which I assumed appeared like lots of the barrier guards I’ve seen in delis and cafes round New York.

I appeared round and was shocked that the foyer did not have any seating, decor, or furnishings, both, apart from a number of trash bins. I am used to seeing a foyer with a ready space once I go to a resort, even at price range hostels the place I’ve stayed previously.

I gave the clerk behind the counter my title, and he appeared up my reservation.

The clerk instructed me there was $20 deposit required for my room key, and that the deposit could be returned to me once I checked out the following morning by 11 a.m.. I paid money for the $20, and the resort clerk printed my receipt and handed me the room key, which was a bodily key on a small keychain.

He additionally unrolled and handed me about 4 ft of bathroom paper to make use of for the shared bogs, and identified on the receipt I may discover the free Wi-Fi community title and password.
