Amazing hotel great price and cleanliness
Amazing hotel I definitely recommend especially as a solo female traveller. Clean, good staff, great view, affordable compared to other new york hotels. Only negative is it is on the same road as port authority bus terminal which is a bit dodgy wouldn’t want to walk alone past there at night.

I love the location of the hotel. Walking distance to every where we wanted to go. The room was cute. I loved that the bunk beds each have their own tv. I would definitely stay here again.

The room was clean and comfortable, despite being small. The bathroom and shower area very nice. The hallway areas were a bit dumpy.

Great for theatre-going and ease of public transit
Staff at registration and cleaning on floors are friendly and take care of all needs very well. Rooms are small so not as comfortable as some of the big hotel chains but location and conveniemce outweighs luxury.

Very convenient and friendly!
They checked us in early and got us a room quickly, and were very friendly! They also provide luggage storage if you have a late flight hours after checkout so you don’t have to haul your luggage around the city all day.

Worth it! Friendly staff.
Everyone at this hotel was so nice. Check in, check out and even the bartender were so welcoming and friendly. We would definitely stay here again. The rooms were small of course but we were adventuring and didn’t mind. Beds were comfy and shower was perfect.
