This hotel is dirty and just awful. It’s like a backpackers hostel not a hotel. The room was so dirty, we booked 3 nights and stayed 1 as it was so bad I felt so unclean. The staff are so unfriendly, not approachable. With exception of the manager Natalie who helped us get a refund so we could move to another hotel. Don’t mind an old hotel, old furniture etc but unclean is not ok.

Mistake

I made this booking in haste last year .without realizing i booked a room with shared bathroom facilities. Which i was unable to change via trip adviser My room was like a cell. dark, windows that looked out closely on a wall, A toilet in a small / tiny cupboard space ,a wash hand basin in a neighboring cupboard space so small unable to outstretch my arms I would say clean but very very run down. It is a catholic guest house but it felt like a religious retreat no frills, lacked comfort, very noisy. It would have been helpful to have a room directory to explain in house as well as nearby facilities On a positive note i was pleased to have a safe in my room. Location in Manhattan was good. Value for money you get what you pay for . My mistake

Liked: Staff & service
Loved the service, staff were very friendly and attentive. Arrived early before check in and they were very helpful in storing our bags before and after we checked out. The location is very convenient and the amenities were exactly what we were looking for. If you’re a germa phob and need your own shower make sure you have a private bathroom. The room we had was a shared bath, but we didn’t mind.

Nice spot for a quick stay.

Nice little hotel on the 23rd street here in NYC. The rooms are a bit small but for one night that's ok. Showers are in separate rooms on floor which can make it tough to shower if both happens to be taken. Other than that, I really liked my stay.

A class service by the team from start to finish ( especially Thommy, who made us feel welcome from the beginning, a friendly, professional kind & helpful person you would go a long way to find, the Leo house is situated in a brilliant location, surrounding areas are clean and easy to walk & Catch the subway, breakfast served was outstanding, only mention for feedback here is the room was hot with no A/C or fan, bed was comfy bathroom and space of a good standard, I have no hesitation in recommending the LEO to stay, I myself will be returning to NYC in the future and when I do the LEO will be my choice of hotel.

A quiet oasis in the middle of one of the largest cities in America. Located very close to public transportation and offered a simple yet restful place of respite from my work day and evening activities. The staff were extremely attentive and service minded. Breakfast was a big bonus to my stay. The one issue I had with an outlet malfunction was rectified immediately. I would definitely stay again.

For the price i would recommend Leo House. While an older building, it was clean and the location was great. Close to the Subway and High Line. Also not that far to walk to places such as the MSG and Times Square. The only downside was at the time of my stay there was no WiFi on my floor.
