Will Tourists sing "The Blues"?

Every time I pass the new Hotel Le Bleu on 4th Avenue , I am imagining foreign tourists getting out of their cab after a long flight and a bumpy cab ride to lay eyes on the hotel that they booked online. My guess is that they will be a tad disappointed.
Just for fun, I went on the German sites of Hotel.com and Priceline to see how the hotel is described and from the description, I would book this place in a flash myself...if I did not know that it was right next to a huge Taxi garage and right next to a busy Staples parking lot. One line in the German hotel description cracks me up in particular: " Genießen Sie Ruhe" translates into " Enjoy the Quiet." That may be a bit difficult to do in that particular location.
The outside pictures of the hotel posted on the web sites look lovely since they show only the top stories of Le Bleu. On the hotel site itself, the hotel looks as though it is standing in some pristine natural landscape. Lets see how tourists will rate this place once it actually opens. I can't wait to read the first reviews.
