Better than expected experience. Room size adequate for two adults. They have several elevators so you can go up and down from your room with relative ease. Nice bar/lounge area on the lobby floor. Close, but far enough from the hustle and bustle of the tourist filled areas of Times Square. Maybe consider adding more hooks or mini shelves around the room.

For solo business trip

This hotel is well located, close but not too close to Times Square. The room was small but well organized, quite OK for one person. The bed was comfortable but not sure if that would be the case for two people. The bath room was fine, with a large shower. Everything was clean. Would go there again for a solo business trip.

They must have a sewage problem. It smells like feces in every common area on every floor I have been to. The pungent fragrance starts at the entrance of the hotel and crawls up the building, chasing you all the way into your room. I get the rooms are meant to be small but there is no justification for poor cleaning and maintenance - I changed rooms and both showers had black mould all over the bottom. The windows of the room have shutters which are perfectly useless as it relates to screening sunlight. Bright and sunny in the room at 7 am, whether you like it or not. Location is great, and none of the hotel’s fault but this block seems to be a hot spot for junkies and homeless people. Staff was very nice, they somehow managed to keep a straight face despite the apocalyptic surroundings.

I loved this hotel, modern and a nice high ceiling with the bunk beds. It was roomy enough for two people doing some weekend traveling. We loved the area too, it was close to everything and right on the same street as the port authority too.

Very good location. It’s super close to Times Square, subway stations, plenty of restaurants, shops, etc. Great if you want to explore and don’t mind being in a busy, touristy area.

Basic but Location, Location, Location!

Nothing is “cheap” in Manhattan but this is about as good as it gets, especially considering its prime location. It’s basic. Bed, desk, bathroom, shower, but it’s a literal stone’s throw from Time’s Square. This was a great find and I would definitely stay there again.
