Don't mess with my coffee hour!!

The breakfast service advertised to begin at 7AM did not open until 7:20AM. There is no coffee offered in the rooms so this was SERIOUS! But seriously, another guest among the waiting customers shared she'd been there for 3 nights and EVERY morning they'd opened as late or later. Also TV remotes didn't work. My other stays there have been better. Off day.

Fantastic!

Amazing. Super compfy bunk bed room and great sleep. Shower is high end incredible. Super quick check in and out, friendly staff. Very close to bus station, Times Square, restaurants, subway. Rooms are small but efficient for clothes storage. Hallways are a little gloomy. Quiet inside despite busyness outdoors.A block away it's a tiny bit sketchy, but felt pretty safe out as woman late at night

The check in was fast and friendly. The rooms were small, as expected, but had the necessities. The shower was baffling as it had a hand wand, but no switch to use the wand, but the main shower was fine. It's no-frills, but you have a clean, safe place to sleep in the Theater district/Times Square area!

Love love loved it! I live in NYC but I needed to spend a couple days in manhattan while recovering from a knee injury. It was a perfect spot for rest. I got the full sized pod. Bed was super comfortable, bathroom was very nice. Perfect for one or two people but definitely recommend for solo travellers. I’ve stayed in a lot of hotels in the city but this is now a favorite for me. Clean and cozy!
