The hotel was rough around the edges. There were gnats in the bathroom and there was rust and missing paint around the AC unit about 6" all around. Dings and scratches all over the furniture. The towels smelled like gasoline. The bed was very comfortable though....it feels like a very classic midtown time square VERY USED hotel.

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.

Tried 3 different rooms hoping to find something close to the pictures. Room 1 - holes in the wall from a recent heater replacement left unpatched. Room 2 - no thermostat at all, just an empty casing where it once lived, a rickety window unit AC (in November) thats accordion wings rattled in the wind. In addition there was peeling paint falling down on the ceiling, dirty, chipped and dinged up walls, suspiciously stained desk chair (had to put a towel down) and very dated/damaged furniture. In the bathroom the ceiling vent was COVERED with a sweater worth of dust, the shower handle fell off when turning it on, the grout was either missing or moldy, and the toilet was stained. I stayed in room 2 because room 3 was across from a mechanical closet with a constant alarm going off, and no better state. I did attempt to abandon my reservation and move hotels but ultimately stayed put due to the hour and high prices for last minute booking. The rest of the hotel is about the same. The rugs through the hallways are stained/bleached/torn up. The elevators are small and VERY slow which gave guests time to commiserate over the state of their lodgings. Every ride I took someone brought up the poor state of their room unprompted by me. The pluses: the staff are warm and accommodating (it's not their fault, and they try!), the bed was clean and comfy, and the location is great. Just know you are getting what you paid for and go in with clear expectations. This is a place to sleep.

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

Rather run down hotel. Heater never worked properly. Set it to 70 degrees and it was blowing just cold air. Hours later it kicked on. Hot water was inconsistent. Sometimes it was hot, sometimes it was cold. Rooms were dusty and marks all over the walls. Bathroom door was rotting. Bathroom was so small, it was a struggle to walk in and out of it every time. Really displeased with the accommodation. On a positive note, the hotel is on a good area

Only one out of the four elevators worked. Elevators were small so you had to wait for another one to come. Apparently, it's common for the room keys not to work. The rooms are in dire need of a renovation. The desk chairs need a deep cleaning. No amenities, other than free coffee. Luckily, the hotel is close enough to bodegas to buy water.

Staff were nice. Room had paint falling off walls and no amenities. Was a room for two but no mini fridge, only one small trash can in the bathroom, no water provided, shower had only half all glass door by design so water spilled out on the floor, all see through so no privacy, dirty blinds, elevator stopped at every floor (15) going up and down even with no passengers, so sometimes 10 minutes on the elevator, tiny closet, only one dresser and no food of any kind offered, coffee machine but inadequate number of cups and no spoons or creamer. Overall a very uncomfortable experience.
