The staff is excellent. They greet you with a smile. The manager is very attentive and does his best to help you with any concerns. Parking is $30 unless you wish chance parking outside within the area. Rooms were very clean and in order. Unfortunately people smoke in their rooms but their is no control over this.

I have just checked into the hotel, and the first thing I can say is—don’t always believe everything you read in reviews. Based on what I saw online, I had little to no expectations, but from the moment I checked in to actually lying down in my room, this place has drastically surpassed my expectations. The front desk staff was extremely friendly, which was the complete opposite of what many reviews mentioned. Check-in took less than five minutes—again, the opposite of what I read. Upon entering my room, everything was clean, the bed is extremely large and very comfortable, and the view from the 9th floor is absolutely breathtaking. I’ll provide another update at the end of my stay, but as of now, I can proudly say that I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to my friends.

Good location, was clean, but a little beat up and small. The owners were nice and good to work with. Biggest complaint was that the room had zero towels - they said they were out and would bring some in the morning, but never saw any.

Not a bad hotel just decent for a place to sleep. The toilet seat was falling off at the hinges and the curtains are sheer and don’t provide enough privacy. The light in the bathroom also turns the bathroom fan on which is super noisey. Over all if I needed a cheap place to stay this works but not my first pick. It was clean enough and bed is comfortable enough which I’m glad. The hotel is a little ran down but over all not the worst.

Our stay at this hotel was extremely disappointing. From the moment we arrived, the check-in process set the tone. The front desk staff member was wearing large headphones, focused on her phone, and ignored guests waiting at the desk for several minutes. When we finally received our room keys, they didn’t work. Instead of resolving the issue herself, she sent another staff member to swap one of the keys. Later, when we asked for breakfast recommendations nearby, her response was simply: “Google has recommendations.” This lack of hospitality was shocking. To make matters worse, on our first night, we were woken up at 1 a.m. by hotel staff loudly arguing with a guest right outside our door because of a payment issue. Overall, this was one of the worst hotel experiences we’ve ever had. The lack of professionalism, poor customer service, and disruptive environment made our stay unpleasant from start to finish.

Don’t do it. Trust me.

Don’t do it. The positive reviews have to be fake. Doesn’t show up on navigation as it should. Charged $30 upon arrival for no reason. Key didn’t work first time. No towels - literally air dried - funny, but dumb. 2 small square pillows. Very comfy bed. Just spend the extra and get a real room, this place is not for real. We went down in the morning to request towels and dude literally just added us to a very long list of names and room numbers. We just air dried and got out of there. Literally no towels of any size.

Honestly, it is the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed. There is no wardrobe, no clothes hangers, no hair dryer and no iron! No any drinks and food! You need to go out to buy everything you need. The AC is not working well so that the room is very hot and noisy! There is no service at all! The staff said they will let the technician check the AC and may consider change a room for us tomorrow. They just gave us some excuse and would not like to handle my issue. They did not come to fix the AC the next day. And they said there is a fitness center in the hotel and dinning room. It is a total lier! No! There is nothing you can find.I was very disappointed at this hotel.

This was a fine place to stay. In the listing they advertised the room as a King bed but it’s definitely a Double. It said there would be a coffeemaker which wasn’t true. Those things didn’t wreck or stay, but just tell the truth about what you offer. We had to ask for a second pillow and towel set, only 1 provided in a booking for 2 adults. We got a good night’s sleep and the location offers easy subway access.

It's a fairly simple property that seems like a de-branded property. I took a chance because it was value priced and I feel great about my choice. It was clean and much of the space was redone new tile / bathroom and vinyl floor. Simple amenities. Neighborhood was interesting but not dangerous. Lots of food options around and 24hour bodega. Reservation system slowed down the front desk a little bit but they're trying. I would stay there again for the price. 5 minute walk to the subway.

The room was more affordable than most nearby options, and the location is excellent—just a 3-minute walk from the subway, which was very convenient. However, the experience had several downsides. Most of the staff were not very friendly or helpful, and there is no secure space to leave luggage before check-in or after check-out. The place offers no real facilities—just a noisy microwave. On top of that, their charges were unclear: beyond the service fee, I was billed an extra amount with no explanation provided.
