When we arrived we were greeted by a wonderful lady that was extremely helpful getting us our room and making sure we were set. And she did warn us about the cast iron heating which was quite hot and did bang in the night. We would stay again!

Not going to stay here again.

There was a burning hot pipe right behind the head of our bed. We had no control over how hot that was. And it was uncomfortable. The bed was otherwise comfortable. The television did not work. The WiFi was very spotty. There were dirty tissues under the bed and detritus in the hard to reach corners around the bed. The fridge in the room either leaked water as it defrosted or froze our leftovers when I turned it up slightly. The bathroom was pretty nice. Staff was pleasant.

The hotel is very old, narrow and without an elevator . No house keeping, the customer must get rid of the trash , change towels and replace the bed sheets themselves. The only good thing about the hotel is the area, it is great for walking , lively and near subway.

I was very satisfied with my recent stay at the Chelsea Inn, as I was in previous stays. It is just what I want for accommodation in New York. The prices are reasonable, the rooms are modest but clean and comfortable, it’s in an interesting neighborhood, and several Metro lines are within walking distance. I would, and plan to, stay there again.
