The staff at the hotel were most obligin nothing was to much trouble. I think the rooms need upgrading but the beds were very comfortable and spotlessly clean. We were on the 15th floor but had no trouble with the lifts.

We were assigned to floor 15th our room was writing front of the elevator and next to us. We had the ice machine and water machine which did not work and he kept beeping all night, so I was really noisy- one of the curtains from our room had completely felt down during the night, which was super scary. And the following morning we requested maintenance to come and fix it which they did right away. So thank you for that. The building does have three elevators. Only Two of them were working but due to the fact that we were in the top floor floor 15 you will take us forever to get on the elevator so we would end up using the stairs which was really tiring. The front desk personnel could improve in terms of providing a welcoming environment. Overall day seemed very overworked and stressed most of the time which cost our overall stay, not feel so pleasant. The location is a big perk. You are right next to Times Square so it’s really easy to get around.

Decently priced hotel convenient to midtown/times square, broadway etc. Super easy access to multiple subway lines. I would definitely say it's a great value, however don't expect the room to be anything luxury, it's clean and comfortable enough, but it's a building with character. Windows are older and some street noise does come through, if you're sensitive to that you might want to consider noise.

Stayed here from Oct 25th -27th, were supposed to stay until 28th but checked into another hotel for our last night. Air con in room couldnt turn off and was very noisy. Reported it and an engineer was to come look at it…. No one came. Elevators were out of order most of the time so we had to use stairs to 7th floor. Staff were not at all helpful when asked about things. Still waiting on my deposit back.

Rooms need updating, none of ice machines worked. Had to go to 7-11 every night to get ice. Hot water didn’t work the first night. Only 1 elevator worked. We on the 15th floor and it stops on every floor even though nobody was getting on. Room had no microwave no mini fridge!! Upon checking in after paying a pretty good amount, there was an additional HEFTY FEE for something that didn’t make sense. Asked for ice this man grabbed a bucket from under a cabinet and filled it with ice like we were going to drink out of that yuckkkk!!! Then after that wanna charge us to watch our bags. Wouldn’t recommend this hotel to my worst enemy. Worst hotel ever.!!!! Only good thing is the deli down the street. Shout out to Carve Deli, oh yea the mattress was sunk in on one side, very lumpy

There were cockroaches. The room was way smaller than advertised. The heater/ac was broken. The hot water was intermittent and one of the elevators was broken the entire time so I’d have to wait at least 10-15 minutes just to go down from my room. Overall wouldn’t recommend this hotel at all
