It is a reasonably priced hotel in the heart of non-touristy lower Manhattan. The staff was very helpful and friendly. It is not the fanciest room but who cares! You’re going to be out and about exploring the city.

The staff at this hotel was lovely, friendly and VERY informative. Loved them. What I did not love was that fact that I was put in a BASEMENT ROOM. I barely had a window. The hot water in the bathroom took at least 10 minutes to heat up before I could use it. Because I had a basement room on the corner, I heard ALL of the foot traffic. I had to take the dodgy stairs up and down cause the elevator was extremely slow. DO NOT STAY Here because you might be put in the basement rooms with barely a window.

I was surprised at how awful our room was. The curtain was off of the rod on one part and in the morning my daughter attempted to raise the shade and that was broken. the bathroom door lock was broken and i couldn’t get out of the bathroom until i worked with the lock. The finale was when we wanted to check our bags when we checked out and did not feel as though checking our bags was necessarily safe. the lady at desk wanted us to leave them in the lobby and trust her to put them somewhere out of sight. We could have done better for $500. Won’t go back. Too many other options.

Noise from street was not so free and probably requires ear plug for sleeping but here is Manhattan. In-room coffee was not equipped.

Convenient and comfortable
This is a cute hotel in a convenient location. From the street you ring the bell to get in. The elevator has a loud long beep when closing, and there's a lot of street noise (but hey it is NYC) Bed was very comfortable and there was lots of natural light. The area is very walkable and fairly close to the subway station.

Hotel was ok, my kids of course expected a fun-er room but I was a bit find with it I guess I just like a bit of a more luxiorius look. But staff were wonderful. Super nice and sweet. Oh they also hold your carry on for free. Amazing and that’s something the fancy luxurious hotel will charge you for so that was amazing I will definitely go back and environment was super cool. Thank you

The rooms are incredibly small, even for NYC hotel rooms. These rooms are good for sleeping, not for hanging out.
