Info
The Hotel Carter is a historic Manhattan lodging place located a half block west of Times Square. The building is 24 stories tall, and at its opening, had 1,000 rooms, but now has 700 rooms. When initially built, it extended from 43rd Street to 42nd Street, although the wing abutting 42nd Street has since been demolished.The facility was financed by a $2,200,000 loan to Harold and Percy Uris by the New York State Title and Mortgage Company in May 1929. It was chartered for $10,000 by M.C. Levine, of 535 5th Avenue, on April 22, 1930. Until October 1976 it was called the Dixie Hotel.
It has been ranked the dirtiest hotel in America from 2004–08. Numerous reports on TripAdvisor warn of bedbug infestation and unsafe conditions.
