Low cost stay near Times Square

Great location. Great restaurants all around. Lots of people walking on the street at all times. Theaters are close by. The room was really small with a very small bathroom. The bed was comfortable. The TV was great. One of the 3 elevators was not working. The hair dryer didn't work. Would recommend this hotel for a short stay only. But the cost was reasonable for NYC.

When we got there the staff were very friendly but when I got to the room and was poor light in the room the sockets didn’t work for our phone. It smelled like cheap bleach and one of the air unit didn’t work in the room, the air unit by the other bed blew out very cold air and we had to lay a towel on it if that person got too cold who laid there, we then had to take it off when the room got too cold. The next day we tried to get a refund and try to get another room, we were told to get in touch with Expedia to go through a process which didn’t work because I was directed to ai chat.

Great Location

This was my first stay at the Gallivant right in the center of it all. Great location. Front desk was incredible, I upgraded my room and she did inform us that the elevator was being serviced. When I got to the room, the keycard did not work. This would set the tone for the entire trip. Each and every time I tried to enter the room after the first try, the key would not work. I would have to trek back down and get a new key, from check in to check out. The room was very nice, updated, but it in certain parts of the room there was spots that were missing paint, desk drawer broken and in the closet, it appeared to be mold with lots of gnats. The bathroom was great. Shower worked and looked updated. But when I woke up, there was a flood of water from the air conditioner to the bed. The highlight of the stay was the incredible staff who did everything they could to try and make the stay great. Would I stay again, probably, just to see if I can get a room without the issues.

Room was a good size- elevator situation is horrible- 2 work- 1 of 2 used by staff so only 1 for guest use. I had to ride down wedged against 2 dirty trash cans Location is good- cleaning staff beyond loud . One was on phone talking very loud. They “yell” to each other from one end of hall to other

First night at 9/10 pm i started smelling raw sewage from the bathroom thinking if i flush the toilet & close the door it would go away i did that and left the room...only to come back with the whole room filled with sewage smell gladly i was changed from that room..then really noticed when i came back with food the rooms didn't have a microwave or refrigerator also before all this i was given the option to get a bigger room instead of being charged a early check-in fee...yet the room that i received with the smell was not even big to have a full size mattress...so if it wasn't for the stink i would have been stuck with a matchbox size room while being charged for an upgrade...this establishment did not even have the BASIC amenities like a PEN & PAD to right vacation notes on i have to beg the staff to borrow printer paper and pen while being lead to feeling guilty for asking...there were 334 rooms..yet 1 ice machine having to go up and down to get ice became burdensome..but without a refrigerator in the room it gad to be done...i was told i couldn't even get a courtesy wakeup call this leads up to learn that the website for the hotel LIES...there are NO USB alarm clocks in every room...VERY misleading ...this hotel experience falls short of the city's high standards of average semi luxury hotel...the only bright spot is the cleaning staff..very helpful and welcoming July 28 thru August 1st 2025
