This is a great choice for a budget hotel in NYC. It is very clean and the staff was friendly. The bed was super comfortable. They can hold your bag during the day. Rooms are no frills and very small.

We had a particular experience with other guests smoking in the room next door and the common spaces. There was a party in an adjacent room, and none of us slept all night. The staff were very lovely and helpful.

My future reservations

I was greeted warmly by the front desk personnel and immediately assigned to the hotel room. I was very pleased with the set-up and cleanliness of the entire facilily that I had access to. I would strongly recommend that my future stays in the Gatsby hotel room be on the 6th floor, preferably with an inside room away from the street traffic noises.
