As a solo female traveler, my experience with Pod was amazing. It was pretty safe. Easy check in and out process. The room was small but clean. It was nearby to Times Square, walkable distance to Top of Deck Observatory and Summit One. Would stay here the next time visiting to NY.

Very convenient! Within walking distance of Times Square and the pier. Within waking distance of Penn Station. Very busy and well populated area until about 9:30pm, we felt safe coming and going. Small, innovative space, which we loved. Would consider our go-to location for NYC visits in the future

Disliked: Amenities
Sink didn’t work or drain properly during my stay. Room is small but manageable for a short weekend trip if you are just sightseeing. Location is the best part of this hotel as you are close to time square and only a short walk up to Central Park and 5th avenue.

Utilitarian and the hallways are depressing, but the rooms are clean, the beds are comfortable, the showers have good water pressure, and it is affordable.

The staff is very nice. It's a very basic room, but we were out all day anyways and it was the best value in the area. The terrace has been under construction and has been closed for at least 2 years. It's in an unbeatable convenient location right near Port Authority bus station and close to the 42nd St./Time Square subway station, walking distance to Broadway, Times Square, Bryant Park, and Hells Kitchen.
