There was a roach in the room I was in and a hair on my blanket. Also, it must be some bar or club outside the room we were in because we heard loud talking and laughing until about 2 am.

Value for money
전철역에서 가까움. 수건 줌. 정수기 있음. 에어컨 빵빵해서 오히려 추움. 공용 샤워실 3개 화장실 4개가 같은 공간에 있는데 불편함. 그래도 가격대비 괜찮음. Close to the tube station. Towel provided. Not so comfy with the limited bathrooms.

It's perfect for folks traveling who want easy access to those touristy spots (Times Sq, Chambers St, Broadway, etc.) without having to stay in it. It's an easy 10-15 minute subway ride to almost everything, and less than a two minute walk to the subway. Also a nice walkable distance to the upper-west side of Central Park.
