Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Great location with cozy rooms. Take note that the stairs may be physically demanding, and the space may be challenging for claustrophobic folks, particularly the restrooms. The heater in our room had issues so the front desk brought us a portable one to use, which was very kind considering the snow storm. This is a great place to stay in NYC for the location and value.
Very convenient location, room size is fine for the price. Do wish the bathroom was a little bigger.

It's rated higher than it should be online. It was hard to find, not easy to enter, not the cleanest, & not the friendliest. You have to have be buzzed in to enter or leave. No elevator. The room had stains on the headboard & seemed dusty. The shower had no curtain or wall so if you shower it'll get all over the bathroom/toilet. It's a tiny room and safe area, so fine for a quick trip/if you'll be out all day, but definitely an average hotel.
High security hotel..need room keycard or buzzed in by front desk to enter from street
Room clean with plenty of shower amenities
Strong mini-split HVAC doubles as an effective white noise source to drown out times square noise
Free Keurig coffee and filtered hot and cold water purifier on second floor TV lounge
Small but mighty! The room may have been smaller, but it was super efficiently-designed, basic but good bathroom amenities, and right in the middle of things (5-10 minute walk to pretty much any Broadway show or the subway to take you elsewhere) yet somehow still quiet and cozy.
A couple things to note...
- Pack light! The rooms are small, and there's no elevator BUT the front desk staff is super friendly and offered to take my bag up to my room upon arrival.
- The rooms are only cleaned/restocked upon request, though with the size it was nice being able to unpack and not worrying about wanting to tuck anything away during the day.
- They charge $5/bag to store your luggage. Cash only.
- Heading to the airport? Skip a taxi or standard Uber/Lyft and opt for Uber Shuttle - it picks up 2 blocks away at 47th and 6th (in front of the Disney Store in Times Square) for under $20/person.
Enjoyed my stay. Had what I needed and staff were helpful.

No hotel should have their staff being a snob about waiting to check in at 4pm during the winter slow season in NYC. That is an exceptional behavior this time of year have never been to another property that acts this way during the winter they all gladly check you in because there are tons of rooms available.
