Reception staff member was inattentive on arrival, more interested in his (her?) chatting on the phone to a friend, than in checking us in. Could not accept a digital card payment. Could not provide a receipt for our credit card payment until checkout. Claimed company policy. At 1am we were woken by the same staff member and its friend talking and laughing loudly outside our room in the corridor. We suggest this employee be moved on. He/she is no good for business!! Facilities in the room were OK, but basic. Local area in which hotel is located is filthy.

Dingy, run-down property with no amenities whatsoever. I had repeated issues with the room keys not working, as did other guests. The sheets and towels were clean, but everything felt very run down. I do not recommend staying here unless you have no other options. It's one step above a by-the-hour kind of establishment. I did not feel safe walking back to this hotel after dark.

This property is… old. The lobby is hot and smells of old diapers and something else I can’t quite place. The elevator smells even worse but is also stuffy. The location is wonderful if you’re visiting Chinatown or Little Italy. The bed is clean but there is only one pillow. I asked for 2 additional pillows and was told I’d have them if they could FIND extras- they found ONE and it looks a little scary. It won’t be touching my head. The room is clean and looks recently updated. The air conditioner puts out really cold air and the room has a fun view of the street outside.

Shower head dripped water constantly, flooding the bathroom floor and making splashing noises through the closed door. Staff tried their best but no other room was available.

Not great

Beds were hard. Rooms were not cleaned but got new towels and made the bed once in 4 days. Hidden service charge. Key card didn’t work and had to get a new one each day.

The hotel is in a very convenient location, there are many places to walk nearby. The renovation is not very fresh, dirty spots on the carpet, bedding and towels. Very noisy, you can hear everything that happens on the street. If you just came to walk and see the city, then this is a normal option.

The bed was very comfortable and the front desk staff was very nice. I was surprised to find no hangers, and only one small, broken drawer in the very small, IKEA style armoire. Two of the four light above the bathroom mirror were out & there was a cockroach in the bathroom. For the price, in NYC, it could have been worse. There was an aggressive panhandler Saturday morning at 6:15am that was a bit scary.

Compared to previous visits to this property, I am very unimpressed. The property is less clean, the rooms are sparser; we had no lockbox, no “do not disturb” sign, the majority of the outlets didn’t work. There is no daily service unless requested at the desk. I will not stay here again, and that’s a shame because I like the neighborhood.

Not great but not terrible either. It's the kind of place you want to stay at when you want something cost effective at the expense of some of the amenities of most other hotels. The room was clean, although the carpet was sus (I recommend bringing house shoes), and the lobby smelled like cat food, but I bet there was no cat. I'm willing to bet that there's folks there who rent monthly, it looks like renovated apartment units. That being said, the proce was right, and I was close to everything I came back to the city for. If you want luxury, this isnt it. If you want a bed, Roku TV and a door that locks, you'll definitely find that here.
