The room is small and basic, but the bed is very comfortable. The hotel is clean and has a very convenient location in a quiet area, away from the noise and hustle of central New York. It’s a great option for solo travelers with light luggage who are looking for practicality and a good rest.

NYC last minute..

We really enjoyed our stay at the little Charlie hotel. We especially enjoyed having our breakfast that we purchased from another location on the rooftop. Great little addition at the hotel. Our one complaint was the water pressure in the shower was weak and the temperature of the water was not hot enough. Room size with a little small, but that is to be expected from a New York City hotel. The staff was fantastic, complementary coffee, croissants muffins apples in the morning was also great. Very cute hotel, would definitely stay there again.

It was small but comfortable for two. We were by the street so it was alittle noisy. The most important thing is it was clean and everyone was helpful.

Rooms are small. Smaller than you can imagine. Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The lobby furnishings need a good cleaning -couches look dirty. TV in our room did not work and no one on site to fix. In the morning the elevator wasn’t working so had to walk up and down the 4 flights. If you need a quick place to sleep, it’s adequate, but otherwise there are far better options for not that much more money.

Very small room. Comfy, typically noisy.

This was an extremely small room. Like, closet sized. It was perfectly comfortable for a single person for a single night, but the half-sized sink was messy to use. Like so many hotels everywhere, you could hear everyone slamming their doors and talking in the halls, and a continuous, loud thunking sound forced me out of bed at 7 am on a Sunday morning. Water pressure in the shower not so great. The elevator was fast, breakfast in the morning more than adequate. Bed very comfy. Towels generous and that rooftop mini-garden is very cute. Great location. Very clean. Quick check in. Emails beg for a 5 star review but i cannot give it - so sorry!

Great concept

The Little Charlie is a great hotel. The staff is very friendly, the spaces are very clean. We stayed in a king bedroom. The bed is pushed up against a wall, so only 1 side is available for entering & exiting the bed. The bed is incredibly comfortable! There is a good amount of noise from the street & the hotel provides earplugs. We didn't need them, since we can truly sleep through anything. The shower had low water pressure. The neighborhood is centrally located & very easy to grab a cab or walk to the subway. In the end, I think the room is best suited for 1 person.
