I liked the location, very convenient, next to subway stations, and walkable distance to Times Square or the Empire State Building. I did not like the room size, photos do no reflect the real size, too small, and the heat was too high, could not be change. Does not have elevator and stair case is narrow and steep.

The hotel itself was good. It wasn't super luxurious, and my room wasn't the most spacious (nothing like in the pictures), but it definitely wasn't bad. It had a big bed, a microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator, mini closet, and TV. Yes, the bathroom is shared, and it's awkward sharing a bathroom with strangers (it appears to be 1:2 - one bathroom for two separate rooms), but it was clean and in good condition. If you want something cheap just to lay your head and put your stuff down, then this isn't the worst place to be. It's good and convenient - and conveniently priced. The water cooler was broken, though, so I had to go out (to the Halal trucks) to get a bottle of water. My stay was good, and maybe given the chance, I'd do it again.

Experience the charming Chelsea Inn
The staff was friendly and attentive. I liked that I only had to share a bathroom with another person, not the entire floor. The rooms had wooden floors and good woodwork. I could relax knowing I wasn't going to see bugs. Overall it was an enjoyable experience.

Everything was lovely for a short stay and the location is amazing! Highly recommend. The only issue we had was that the bathroom sink (and to a lesser degree the shower) didn’t really drain (took an hour or so after brushing teeth etc), but a minor inconvenience compared to the ideal location. Staff would have a little basket of snacks out for grabs at the front desk, which was cute and very appreciated! Would definitely stay here again.

Good location but worst bed ever
Hotel well located in Chelsea neighborhoods and easy to access with self-checking system (the hotel sent us the passcodes to enter hotel and room before our arrival). However, the room wasn’t very cleaned, and next to the lobby and laundry which was very noisy. Furthermore, the bed was very uncomfortable and bowl-shaped. My friend and I had to do our best not to crush each other during the night. I've attached a photo of the underside of the bed to show you the state of the box spring, which explains the hollow in the bed. Our other friend slept on the sofa bed which was hard and very uncomfortable too. I would not recommend this hotel if you are looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay…

Very clean and cozy. Not the biggest but it is perfect for a couple. The staff were nice however there was no front desk till 5 pm which can be inconvenient for those who are checking in early. You should be able to get into your room anyways bc they send an email with ur room # and passcode to get in. The subway is down a few blocks, the street is quiet and not busy unless the trash truck comes which is very loud in the mornings but doesn’t last long. The ac didn’t work but we stayed in winter so thankfully we could open the screened window from some cool air which was perfect. The rooms are heated very well! Overall very nice stay, will be staying again for future nyc trips.

Superb location. Wonderful old building in excellent shape. Rooms are teeny but well organized. Great value for the price. Biggest issue: no elevator. We had a junior suite & those are on lower floors.
