Horrible hotel. Hotel is under construction and it’s not livable what so ever. They are under full construction. It was very unsafe, unhealthy and dangerous. Dust, paint, construction hazards are everywhere. This hotel needs to be shot down till they finish the construction. Pain, construction material smell everywhere and unhealthy smell everywhere to sleep in. All our clothes were dusty, our eyes red every day our throats were dry, sore from the construction smell. Towels were dirty with construction glue, cement on it. Unlivable hotel. I don’t think this is legal for them to operate under this condition. Across the street there was a major construction as well and the noise was unbearable. The construction noise in hotel it self was unbearable as well. I am definitely going to report this and ask for my money back. We hung a privacy sign for them not to enter our room but they disregarded it and entered the room anyways. Apparently they tried to clean it but instead they ruined my shoes socking wet by flipping the iron on top of it and the water inside the iron got all over my used shoes and it was trashed.

Was in town for a birthday party and didn't want to drive back so late. So I booked the place on third party site which was great the price was incredible! I wasn't expecting a lot because of the entrance and how you have to go down steps. The room is super small it had two twin beds. No thrills type of place but I can see what type of activity happens if you know what I mean. It wasn't dirty however, the sheets did not look crisp/clean. There was no remote we got one from the front desk and it still didn't work. So to put it frankly it was close to the tunnel,It was cheap, it served its purpose.

Good, basic room at an affordable price

Great location. Comfortable, clean room. No frills, just a good, basic room at an affordable price. My only suggestion would be to add a bedside lamp. The only light near the bed is the main room light and the switch is by the door.

Yikes

My room sure didn't look like the photos, nor did the lobby which made me think I was in the wrong place. Are they under construction? I hope they are because; yikes. There wasn't a single lamp in my room, not a bedside light or desk lamp or even wall sconces. Just full blast overhead halogens with that harsh white/blue light. I get it; it's a budget hotel, but I needed to spend some time working and it was very uncomfortable. It felt like a bad dorm before your mom goes to Target. I could go on but, again, budget hotel so you get what you pay for, but I'll include one photo, which is the desk chair that looks like it was pulled from the alley.

I found the info on Expedia misleading. The entrance to the hotel is below ground level, and is missing the marquis that I saw on the profile dating back years. The hotel entrance was attractive in those pictures, and now it presents as a flop house. Further, I'm tall and the room only contained a wooden box, less than 6' tall as a closet, without a single hanger. Upon asking the front desk for hangers, I was given one cheap wire hanger and told it was the only one they could find. This, after he searched several other rooms and the offices there. Further, with an overcoat, as well, the closet was inadequate for someone of my height. On the plus side, the bed was exceptionally clean and comfortable, and the room otherwise well-maintained. The neighborhood, while dingy and noisy, is convenient to midtown attractions, being only 5-10 mins away from many of them. On balance, though, I'd say the hotel's Expedia rating of 2.6 (out of 5) stars is well warranted.

This place was nice for the price, and the room was fine for our one-night stay. The staff was very friendly when we checked in and the WiFi was good. The hotel seemed to be under construction in some places, which is fine because renovations are always needed. We would stay here again. The room lighting was moody; the view was OK. I would only ask that we be able to turn off the motion-sensor bathroom fan light. Also, please provide better-quality towels; they were very thin.

Property is in need of renovation in all areas. Staff were pleasant. Unfortunately the rooms look a lot better in the photos than in person. Our room didn’t have a safe in the room which was advertised. Good location to explore Manhattan relatively easily however price has to be right reflecting condition of my room.

Barely passable

Hotel is under renovation and frankly not finished. The facade looks very shabby. The bed and linen were good and clean. Servive personnel are polite. But there’s are no side lamps, coffee maker and no decor and cold stone floors. My complaint about a broken toilet seat was acknowledged but went unattended. There is only one elevator that is also used by the service crew and also some of the construction people so waits could be more than 10 minutes to catch the elevator. The location is great if you’re planning to walk to Javitz for a conference or expo.

Thought it was in a great location walkable distance to pretty much everything midtown. Staff were friendly. Room was clean except the comforter which has blood stains and the towel that was given was full of hair. Got a new towel without any issues. It was a place to stay if youre looking for a 3 or 4 star this isnt it. If youre here to be within walkable distance to pretty much everything (we walked to chinatown 1 hour) then this is a good spot. We walked back from Madison Square Garden 4 nights around 1-2am and no issues (but it was winter and time during New Years) Breakfast is toast and keurig. But if youre coming to NYC to get a contenental breakfast then this isnt it. Grocery store is around the corner to get breakfast. Construction going on across the street cool to see how much they get done in a day. Overall cheaper place than almost anywhere else but you get what you pay for.
