great for having a safe comfortable place to sleep at night if your trip is primarily geared towards being out in the town for most of the day. Did not offer things like mini refrigerator or microwave, but for a tiny space it won’t be practical.

Disliked: Amenities
If you come to NYC and want to have a nice stay, I recommend considering other options. You can often find much better hotels for the same price. This place is more like something between a hostel and a hotel. The beds are very uncomfortable, and many rooms don’t have a private bathroom.
