    Nothing good about the stay, super bad

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    It’s a walk up, day time staff was rude.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    This was in a perfect area in Times Square! We could really walk everywhere. The room was small but it was good for the price we paid. There was one guy working the front desk most of the time while we were there and he was so nice! There are no elevators but he offered to help carry our bags up the stairs. But yeah, no elevator so be prepared to climb stairs. It was nice and clean when we arrived. No one comes to clean the rooms unless you request them to, which I liked. It was a great stay and I would definitely stay again.

    Fantastic location to enjoy everything that Broadway has to offer. Our biggest challenge was the lack of an elevator, although the staff was really helpful to assist with our luggage. Otherwise the room was clean and comfortable and tiny. All in all it was a great value!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Great location for a great price right off Times Square. Only downfall to me was this hotel didn’t have any elevators.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Great hotel! There is a great lounge with coffee, tea and filtered water. The room is small, but you can stay in times square for a fair price. You can get numerous trains nearby and get anywhere in the city. It is a walkup, so be prepared. If you can't handle stairs, this isn't for you.

    Location is great. Rooms are small but have what you need. Only thing to consider is that it has no elevators and there are 5 floors. Just the fact that it does not have elevators, but the staff is gentle and will move your luggage for you.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The location and price were great, and for a short-term work stay by myself it was all I could need. Yes, there is no elevator (I prefer taking the stairs anyway). Every room has a private bathroom (though it is a "wet-bath" setup). Going in with these expectations you will have a lovely stay - the rooms are clean, very well stocked, and cozy. An elevator for mobility-impaired guests, and maybe a full shower-stall so one doesn't have to dry the floor after a shower - but between choosing for a shared bathroom and a private wet-bath, I'll take the wet-bath every time!

    The room is really small so plan accordingly. My wife and I kept bumping into each other in the room. Also the bathroom shower has no door. So the whole bathroom gets wet when you shower. Also staff didn’t pick up the phone for a whole hour straight when I needed towels.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The site didn’t state that the hotel is walk up and no elevator which is very inconvenient for elderly like me. Had I known it to be walk up place I wouldn’t have selected it.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Super tiny rooms, good for 2 people. No elevator though, so if you have asthma notify the property way in advance!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Room was small (but not cramped). It was very clean and modern, and the bathroom / shower were great! In a perfect location for theatres (on 8th Ave, between 46th and 47th). Lots of food options nearby, and only a few blocks from Times Square. Very friendly staff. Water and coffee available for free. Only possible hitch . . . no elevator! So if you are good with taking the stairs, this place is wonderful! (there are even signs saying that taking the stairs is good exercise, and good for the heart and legs!) Overall, great place!

    The hotel is conveniently situated near Times Square and key attractions in upper Manhattan. The room is compact yet well-maintained and spotless. The staff are friendly and helpful. The only downside to this hotel is there's no elevator. We had to lug our bags up 5 flights of stairs. But, if you ask at the front desk, they'll help you with your luggage. You still have to walk up all those stairs to your room. If that's not a problem for you, the hotel is comfortable, and I'd recommend it.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The place for the price charged is absolutely basic, very small room enough just for a small double bed. The photo of the room advertised on your site is not a fair representation of the room advertised on your site at all. The bed was clean and comfortable but the room for the price is really tiny.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    It was very c lean and in the perfect place in the city. So close to everything and so easy to get around The stairs lol. But was not bad at all

    If you stay on a low floor because of there being no elevator, you can literally hear and feel the subway running underneath. And, the Air Conditioner did not work well.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very kind stuff. Clean room. Perfect location. Would recommend to everyone.
