The rate was ridiculously high for this bare bones accommodation. The room itself had more of an old dorm vibe rather than a boutique hotel feel. The windows are old and do nothing to keep out the noise of a very busy street. There are no curtains to keep out light. Service was nonexistent. The television did not work and there was no support to repair it. I would not stay here again and would advise anyone looking for a decent night's sleep to look elsewhere.

Stay somewhere else

Location cannot be better if you want to explore East Village. The reception staff was very helpful and friendly. However, their bathrooms seriously need work. Sink water has barely any pressure and so does the shower - if you can figure out how to turn on the shower without calling the reception. The water does not drain quickly in the bathtub so you have to stand in your own soapy water while taking a shower - yikes! There was dirt and hair on the room floor so they need to work on that too. I paid $350+ for 1 night because I wanted to stay in East Village but I would rather pay $500 and stay at a better hotel or stay somewhere slightly far for the same price or less.

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.
