So dirty we immediately left

This place was disgusting! We couldn’t even stay here - immediately checked out and found a new, much nicer, and even cheaper hotel. The room had food crumbs all over the floor, stains on the sheets/pillowcases, and just overall dirt and grime everywhere. When we talked to the front desk about wanting to leave, they came up to our room with a handheld vacuum to try to clean the floors… which obviously did nothing. Staff was at least nice so that was the only redeeming quality. Would not recommend staying here when there are so many other options.

Loan the fairy clean the from a very small refrigerator, no coffee or no complementary water in the room. I would stay there in a pinch, but more than one night isn’t worth it.

Cheap and available for a reason

Toilet did not flush - I had to lift the tank lid and do it manually. There was no hand soap. There was half a roll of toilet paper and no backup. The tv did not work. The shower did not have hot water. My room had one window and it was obstructed by a noisy AC unit.

Items stolen out of my room

An H&M bag with gifts for my family was STOLEN out of my room AFTER housekeeping went in and I told the front desk prior to that I did NOT want housekeeping during my stay. Beds were comfortable, but had to call twice for assistance with TV not working properly at night and TV screen was so dark you could barely see it. It is very expensive to stay here over Fourth of July w/e so getting something stolen from my room is very disappointing. I expect a refund for the $40 worth of gifts in the bag. Complimentary coffee in the lobby was nice but communication from front desk to housekeeping needs to improve and should never be stealing in a hotel room.

Was really hoping based on the photos & reviews I read that this would be somewhere I’d stay several times a year while visiting my NYU student. Pictures are misleading & I can’t believe ppl left reviews boasting how great it is. Dirty throughout properly & room. Bed was ok. Staff was friendly. But I will not stay here ever again.

This is a great choice for a budget hotel in NYC. It is very clean and the staff was friendly. The bed was super comfortable. They can hold your bag during the day. Rooms are no frills and very small.

The property is clean and very conveniently located amongst many restaurants. The room was clean but the facilities overall were worn out and you can see and feel the wear. The outlets were so loose they could not hold a plug inserted. The elevator broke down during one day. There was no hand soap provided for the rooms. The body wash was in single-use plastic. The clothes iron had a big gunky stain, and the ironing board had holes.
