Good for a solo weekend trip but a few caveats...

I stayed here for a weekend and it provided me with the basics needed for a decent stay. The pros were that the bed was extremely comfortable, there was plenty of hooks/shelving to store my things, and the fridge was full of complimentary Fiji water. Also, the towels were fluffy and of nice quality. Everything was spotless; all areas of my room to anywhere I went in the hotel. There are small overhead lights hanging above the bed; I swiped a tissue in the fixtures and there was no dust at all! There were some cons staying here but it's manageable for a short trip. My room was facing 2nd Avenue which is a very busy street at all hours of the night (the hotel does provide ear plugs, but I'd rather the windows were soundproof). The second is that the blinds are not blackout; so I was awake around 6/7AM every morning. The third was that the shower was only warm for 5-10 minutes at a time. The last comment I have is that I noticed a few burn marks on my sheets but by the time I saw, it was my last night so I didn't care to get my sheets changed. Overall, this was a nice place to stay for a quick trip but I would have preferred to stay in a room facing inward rather than towards 2nd Avenue so I could sleep. Everything else was able to be overlooked as the staff was warm and accommodating, the rooms and public spaces were spotless, and this hotel is locked after hours which made me feel safe. They also store your bags post-checkout in a locked closet for safe keeping.
queen room; underbed storage, compact space but good for solo travelers
public lobby after hours; very cozy vibe

The roof terrace is awesome! I liked just about everything except that I didn’t sleep that well since I’m not a fan of memory foam mattresses. I also had trouble regulating the heat and had to keep it warmer than I would have liked since by the time I thought to ask for an extra blanket the staff had left for the day. Since my room was near the lobby it was a little bit noisy in the morning. Otherwise I did like the hotel!

I can’t wait to stay at Little Charlie again! The location is ideal: close to big public transit hub, safe, and lots of dining and drink options. The hotel is spotless, and feels new and well-maintained. Rooms are small but very cozy and comfortable with good natural light. The rooftop sitting area is a huge added bonus in good weather. The staff was uniformly friendly and helpful and recognize that little touches go a long way.

Everything is wonderful except around the property is quite noise if you are facing the street. Even during late night hours you can hear all different noises and during the day there’s loud construction going on.

This was the perfect fit for my teen daughter and my visit to New York! We stayed one night, but it was cute, clean and a cozy spot after a long day. It’s walkable to Grand Central station which was great for eating shopping and getting to the subway for sight seeing. Staff was kind and helpful and the lobby and rooftop deck were great spots for relaxing between stops.

Good deal for the price

The room was small but used its space well: bed, counter, small fridge, nice enough bathroom, and enough space to stow your things for a brief stay.
