Located on the 43th Street of Times Square near 7th Ave, the hotel is in an excellent location, very close to the subway, convenient for transportation, shopping and eating. The hotel has a small facade and is a typical traditional old hotel. The decoration is very tasteful, but the facilities are relatively old, especially the air conditioning. The old buildings in New York can only be installed with window air conditioners because of history and structure, so it is not recommended to mind the air conditioning noise. The hotel room is small and the extra bed is difficult. Breakfast is a typical light meal, the variety is monotonous, but the coffee is unexpectedly delicious. This characteristic hotel is small and exquisite, and people who like it will like it, but it is not recommended to choose a modern star hotel.

This hostel definitely lives up to its reputation in NYC! The location is fantastic, super close to the subway, and the atmosphere is great. I loved that the bathrooms even had hairdryers. Security is also top-notch; you need to swipe your card every time you enter.

Located in the most bustling part of New York City, it's incredibly convenient for getting around. There are many theaters, restaurants, shopping malls, supermarkets, and convenience stores nearby. For this prime location, it's a great value-for-money four-star hotel. This is already my third stay here.

Location: The location is great, and it's lovely to stroll around the SoHo and NoHo areas. I much preferred the vibe here compared to the place I stayed at in Times Square later on. Cleanliness: I was surprised that someone cleaned the room every day, and the bed was always neatly made when I returned. Although the space was small, it smelled nice and was quite tidy, not dirty at all. Environment: The environment was also very good, and the bed was comfortable to sleep in, making me feel secure. The wash area, bathroom, and toilet were all clean. Everything had a pleasant scent. Overall: As long as you don't have very high demands for sleep quality and space, this place is quite a bargain. If you have a small suitcase and can accept sleeping only 5-6 hours a night due to being a light sleeper, I highly recommend it! The hotel I stayed at in Times Square afterward was nearly triple the price, but the experience wasn't three times better than here. Minor drawbacks: 1. Regarding noise: It was a bit noisy, but not excessively so, as everyone was very considerate. Perhaps due to the lack of a ceiling, I could clearly hear other guests going to the toilet or getting a drink. Being a light sleeper, I basically woke up at 6 AM every day and couldn't fall back asleep. Also, I had to be very careful in the room myself, as I was afraid any sound might disturb others. 2. Regarding hot water: I took three showers in total. One in the afternoon was almost cold water; one at dusk was lukewarm; and one in the evening started lukewarm but then turned hot. So, if you plan to shower, I recommend doing so in the evening. Of course, the water pressure was very low. PS: You can get free drinking water from the pantry on the ground floor.

The hotel's location is good, within walking distance of Times Square. However, due to ongoing road construction nearby, traffic is very congested, and taxi wait times are long. The room is small but clean, though there's no complimentary drinking water, so you have to buy your own. The bar staff on the lobby level are very nice and provide free iced and hot water. The shower curtain in the bathroom shower stall is quite short and high off the ground, causing a lot of water to splash out when showering. One early morning, the hotel alarm went off; even though the announcement said it was a false alarm, it continued to ring intermittently for a long time before finally quieting down.

The hotel is right by the UN building. The room was decent, and you could see the Empire State Building and Rockefeller Center from the window. I had to rent a kettle from the coffee shop downstairs for about $30, which is practically the price of buying a new one. There was a red stain on the carpet and around the bed, and I really hope it was just red wine and not anything else. I tried not to think about it too much, but it did make me a little uneasy every time I saw it.

The room was spacious and well-suited for business travelers, with a large bed, sofa, and a generous work desk. The hotel is also very close to the airport. One thing to note is that the airport shuttle only runs every 30 minutes, so convenience may depend on your schedule and how rushed you are. Service was somewhat inconsistent. Some staff members were friendly and helpful, while others seemed less polished in their customer service. One shuttle driver was particularly warm and welcoming, but another came across as less professional, which left a less positive impression. The room and bathroom appeared clean overall. However, there was occasionally a faint musty odor in parts of the bathroom, possibly due to humidity. It wasn’t overwhelming, but it was noticeable at times. Overall, the spacious room and convenient airport location were definite highlights, though service quality and some maintenance details could be improved.

I found this hotel near Newark Airport last minute due to a flight change. They offer a shuttle service every half hour, and it's all about value for money and convenience. The hotel is about a fifteen-minute walk to a European immigrant neighborhood with many restaurants, including a BBQ joint that serves huge portions. The hotel itself is a bit old, but it prioritizes good value and convenience, especially for an airport hotel.

We had a lovely stay. The hotel is a few min walk from the metro, and there are plenty of restaurants and attractions close by. The room had beautiful artwork and although it was a bit small, we had plenty of space for two.

The hotel is located on 46th Street, at the intersection of 7th and 8th Avenue. You're practically in the heart of Times Square within a two-minute walk. The rooms are small, but they are cleaned daily, and towels are always changed. It's an optimal solution for a short stay, being right in the heart of New York. It can be very noisy at night, so I recommend bringing earplugs. The hotel is situated on Theater Row. Taxes and additional fees can only be paid by card, both credit and debit cards are accepted. It's useful to use Revolut as it's accepted practically everywhere, including for public transport. The staff is courteous.
