I was disappointed to find out that this property is CASH ONLY, as it wasn’t clearly mentioned anywhere when I made my reservation. Please make sure to highlight CASH ONLY in capital letters wherever possible. Additionally, inform guests that the property has no elevator and requires navigating many steps, even to access the first floor. This wasn’t an issue for me personally, but it could be a concern for others. I will definitely stay here again. This property provides excellent value for the price.

The hotel room was very good for its price. Not enough space though but still quite good for a short stay. The hotel management accepts only cash which can be a hassle. They should start accepting credit/debit card payments. The room and bathroom was clean. Heater was there in the room. Will recommend this hotel to everyone who plans a short stay in NYC on a budget.

First, the positives: It’s a great location. Lots of restaurants, cafes, and coffee shops nearby. Some cool shops and a movie theater are all within walking distance too. There are also a couple of subway stops very close. It was also pretty quiet. I didn’t hear any street noise at all, and it seemed the other guests were respectful. The front desk is also very helpful and friendly. Now, the not so good: My room was tiny. I mean, barely enough room for me and the bed. There was a closet-ette I could hang a few things in, a small chair, and a phone, but that’s it. The remote to the TV was missing a battery, but it wasn’t even the same make so it might not have even worked. The pillows were inconsistent in shape and size with most being flat. The bed was comfortable enough though the mattress was pretty beat up and falling (?) out from under the bed. The bathroom was also tiny, and I had to close the door to even sit on the toilet. The shower (no tub) was filthy with mildew all over. This is not an exaggeration. There’s no fan or cover for the light fixture which actually came in handy when the bulb burnt out, and I changed it myself. The towels were rough and thin. The water took forever to get warm, then would randomly go from hot to lukewarm. Maybe due to others showering at the same time. The front door rubs on the carpet so badly you have to really pull it hard to close it. It’s a shame because it has a lot of charm, but is in need of major upkeep and renovations.

Good location, easy access to public transport. The area is not the best but it is central to most attactions. The hotel is old and I guess fornthe price it is just fair. The wifi was down for 2 days

For a hotel in Manhattan there was simply nothing else in this price range. If you book here, you should expect a full room, it's not a hostel. The room will be clean. There is no elevator in the building, so getting luggage up and down the stairs is a workout, but the staff are happy to help you out. The hotel only accepts payment in cash, so bring your money with you. The room was very small and cramped by non-nyc standards. There is a 24 hour pizza and bagel shop underneath the hotel that's super convenient. The downsides of being a walk up and the room being small are understandable considering it's so affordable and it's in NYC. As long as you are good with these I'd strongly recommend this establishment for an affordable NYC stay. Only a block and a half away from the 6 train.

Avoid!!

The worse experience ever! Booked for 5 nights but left after one night. Paid cash when we arrived. Luckily we were able to have the refund for the rest of the staying but no refund or compensation from the hotel for the horrible night we stayed. We felt very uncomfortable. The hotel is so old, from entrance to the rooms. The staff at the desk , Tom or Tim, not very pleasant either. The room was noisy, cold and very old. Very basic, just an uncomfortable/noisy bed,a very old wardrobe and a chair (not even an hairdryer or a desk, or doors on the wardrobe). We raised our concern about the noise and we asked for an hairdryer (unsafe). The room didn't have a working radiator, only a tiny fan, it was minus 10 that night and there was not even a blanket ,only a thin blanket. We freeze all night, we had to wear many layers but still cold (the window wasn't closing properly either).

Great location, but missing the basics

Helpful staff, but the bed felt like a cardboard box and the pillows were similar. We had to but a couple of Target pillows just to have a chance at sleep. Great location, clean, and helpful staff, but even little things missing like towel racks and a soap rack in the shower made the experience poor.
