Upon check in even though we paid in full they charge an extra $22 per day. For what? I don’t know what for. The hotel is stripped down, not even tissues in the room. When I asked for a box they offered me a roll of toilet paper. The location is excellent for walking to Broadway shows but it is a place to sleep, no extras.

Good for the Price…

We stayed four nights and the room was as advertised. It’s small and it’s tight but it’s well priced and you’re right off 42nd and 9th so it’s in a great spot to get around Manhattan. There wasn’t anything significantly wrong, just a few minor things. There was some minor mold around the edge of the shower, our sink struggled to drain and while the thermostat was set to 68 the temperature never got below 70. It was $149 a night on hotels.com and with the resort fee and spike for the weekend rates, it ended up costing about $211 a night. We basically used it for sleeping and showering and overall it was good.

Poor everything

Terribly poor execution of CitizenM concept at slightly lower price. Dark, dank, scary location at night, misleading pictures, no amenities except an unattractive bar. Totally disappointing

Great price for Times Square hotel- but the ingenuity of bathroom didn’t make sense. The water got everywhere on the floor- including the carpet in the main room causing serious mildew stink! Wish they would fix the shower floor and remove the carpet from rooms. The view was amazing!!
