Clean, tidy, easy to find and get in and out of without keys. Good location. Quiet. Small room with good sized bathroom but its new york and you're not in the room other than to sleep so does the job. Would recommend for easy fuss free travellers.

I think the fact that there is no elevator and I had to walk up 5 flights of stairs with my luggage and that I would have to share a bathroom with the room next door - should have been clearer in the description; then I would not have stayed there.

I was not aware that there was no elevator. Our room was on the fifth floor. I have back issues as well as a bad knee and so that was not an easy or pleasant experience after a long day in the city. Then once we got to our room, the radiator was located where we could not reach it behind the headboard and the temperature in the room was 82°. The mini split would not turn on the air. It only was on heat as well. We brought this to the attention of the maintenance guy and he said he was going to call the super, but nobody ever came to check it out thankfully there was a ceiling fan a little comfort. Overall, I was not happy with the location of our room in the building, and the temperature in the room. Even though we brought it to the attention of the maintenance and front desk, it was not addressed until Saturday night around midnight. Thankfully, front desk could reach the radiator and was able to turn it down for our final night stay.

Staff was super helpful when we needed some things addressed in our room! As long as you know there's no elevator and you have to take the stairs you're fine! We enjoyed the location. It was walkable to many food options and the subway.

Very cozy spot to lay my head in the middle of a busy working week. Nice private bathroom, mini fridge, microwave, comfortable heating and cooling. Contactless check-in was smooth and fast too!
High ceilings and just what you need when crashing in the City.
Clean private bathroom better than some chain hotels in town!

Stayed here 3 nights in a shared bathroom room and I gotta say that everything was great and as advertised. Few things - The heater was behind my bed and at night my pillows were extremely hot since the heat penetrated the bedrest which was a bit uncomfortable but not a deal breaker. The absence of an elevator is rough specially with heavy luggage and a very narrow staircase, but once again we knew that so it was fine. Employees were friendly and they had a few snacks on the desk. It’s amazingly situated as theres quite a lot of train stops near and decent restaurants and coffee shops ( Try the Mido’s Gyros they are amazing near Ulta ). We really enjoyed our stay will MOST DEFINITELY stay here the next time we got back to NY. PD The shared bathroom is a NON-ISSUE as most of the time people are out and its like right outside your room door under another hub that gives your privacy.
