Room was tiny, but clean and comfortable. Front desk staff were friendly and efficient. Easily walkable to Central Park and The Met. Lots of places to eat around the area. Surprisingly little traffic noise at night. The AC made all sorts of odd noises, but better that than not having AC at all. Perfect place for a short stay in NYC.

Won’t be back
Poor customer service: every time you entered the building the staff were playing on their phones, often not aware of customer presence. The room was tiny and was not cleaned by staff. The bathroom was so small the sink had to be in the bedroom.

Great stay! Would do it again!
The front desk staff was helpful, friendly and kind every day and night. We were always welcomed with a warm hello. The room was cozy, a bit tight in general but normal for New York. The neighborhood is lovely. There were tons of food options super close and we also DoorDashed Roma pizza at the recommendation of the front desk when we got in at 1 a.m. It was fantastic. The subway entrance is close and we rode the 4 everywhere we needed to go. Would absolutely stay here again.
