To anyone traveling to NYC, I cannot recommend against the Millennium Hotels strongly enough. The rooms look like they are from the 80's, the staff is rude, and they know they have problems. There's a contract fixer here trying to turn the brand image around (and failing so far).
I seriously had better service at a Holiday Inn earlier this year. This is not a five star hotel chain. The Millennium offers you a place to lay your head, that's it. If you're looking for:
Internet
Power outlets near the bed
Towels that aren't threadbare
Stay somewhere else.

I could go on, but I'll close with these photos of my room. I'm seriously not walking barefoot in my own room. If there's another conference here, it will happen without me.
