What Guests Are Saying

“the staff was friendly and very helpful. They arranged car service for us twice. Rooms were clean. Price was reasonable. they had coffee / tea / and Ice water in the lobby. we will stay with them again when visiting NY.” — bobbyh240, 5 stars

“Location is quiet good, all staff members are good specially Lesly, Bobby Now come bk to interior is quiet decent. They have old and renovated rooms. So all depends which one you looking for. I stayed for 9 days, and I felt staff were all good and helpful. They Don serve breakfast. They have though coffee time 7 am to 10 am everyday. And drinking water is bit unfacilited. As there is filer machine in gym area where in one has to go n fill the bottle. So if looking for fair price than go for it” — sweta, 4 stars

“We enjoyed our stay here. Room was decently large for an NYC room. Had coffee and water in the lobby for free which was nice. Staff were all very friendly, and the location is great. Price was what I would expect for a stay in NYC. The only downside was that it was a pain to get a late check out, couldn’t request in advance, had to call at a certain time in the evening, and we were already in bed at this point.” — cdr977, 4 stars

"I love this hotel, its quaint, clean and quiet. I stayed her the 2nd time I visited NYC and left satisfied. The area is excellent, you're a few minutes from the subway and plenty of choices for food nearby. I remember the staff for being kind and welcoming, they take pride in making sure the place is clean and accessible. I didn't have any issues when I booked my week stay here, it was easy and straightforward. Next time I head to NYC, this place will be my first option. I recommend to anyone, especially if traveling solo. Great prices and excellent location."

"The staff was very friendly and helpful. They were accommodating during our stay. The rooms were very clean, bedding was clean, bathroom was clean. The location is perfect. Parking garage is close, a little pricey but hey it's in time Square so that's to be expected. The room was very small and the only outlet I could find was in the bathroom but we were only there to sleep so didn't bother me any. I would stay here again."
