Hotel not so far from Manhattan, close to public transportation but not very welcoming area. Hotel room was convenient, however bathtub was stained, carpet dusty, and the heating system noisy. A kettle and coffee machine in the room would have been perfect!

So, I’ll admit, it could have been worse. We had heard another guest arguing for their money back since they had gotten to their room not ten minutes before to arrive to a room with urine all over the bathroom, bedding filthy, etc. While our room was clean, we can definitely reiterate that it’s for sleeping only. If you’re expecting a nice stay, this is not necessarily the place for you. The towel bar was falling out of the hole, there was missing furniture, the bedding was definitely a little suspicious… and the other furniture that was there was scuffed so bad. Additionally, we have stayed many places and have never experienced a stay where they require you to pay for early check-in, and as much as they required. Not to mention, we paid for early check-in and got probably the worst room in the entire place. We were right next to the desk and the storage room, so that meant we heard people talking (very loudly) until around three in the morning a couple nights, and the storage room door slamming the entire night every night. For the price, it isn’t horrible, but definitely not a nice place.

Excellent hotel to stay near Manhattan. Economic, clean and comfortable. Really close to the Subway station, you just walk for 5 min. The only thing is the neighborhood at night, a little not safe, that’s was my impression, nothing bad happened to us, but weird people after 10pm.

Helpful staff, room was questionable

We arrived early and inquired about early check-in after being told our room was available. The front desk clerk advised that early check in was a $40 additional charge, but after early morning flights we wanted to freshen up and planned on being out all day without returning so we paid it. The room we were given was a CRIME SCENE-literally! I had to sign my life away (or really my $100 deposit) saying I would lose the deposit if there was ANY damage to the room, though the room we were given had no mirror in the bathroom (just a small shard remained in the frame), the sink was cracked, the towel rack was falling off the wall and the towels were on the floor and on top of the toilet, and the toilet seat which should have been an elongated seat (to fit the toilet) was a small round one. And the icing on the cake was the purple fingerprint dust that was all over the bathroom (walls, light switches, door jam, door, sink). I went down to the front desk and asked how long ago the room had been the scene of a crime. The clerk seemed a bit surprised but stated it had been empty for awhile but was available to be rented and then took copies of the photos we showed her. She was helpful, but wasn’t able to move us into a different room until the next day and would send housekeeping up to do what they could about cleaning up the bathroom. They fixed the towel rack but that was all. I also found “brown” splatters across the wall next to the sink and on the headboard of one of the beds.

You get what you pay for

The room was fine but the walls are very thin. You could hear people in nearby rooms loud and clear. The area around the hotel is somewhat sketchy especially the route from the hotel to the F train.

Not great

We booked a superior King room. There was nothing superior about this room. It had absolutely (anywhere)no hooks for towels in the bathroom, for coats, for any garment. No closet. The 2nd nightstand and its light were missing. The bathroom light did not work. The space between the bed and the desk was not large enough for our suitcases to pass. No microwave. The TV was practically useless. We were also only given 1 towel. It’s a short walk to the metro but really that’s all it has going for it. I would not recommend this hotel.
