The space was just as promised, The staff were easy to communicate with and made accommodations. The breakfast bar was less than ideal and there was a bit of dust and remnants in the room. As well as my bedside light not working. Overall I did enjoy my stay, and I think any qualms I have are easy fixes.

First time in this Pod and the experience was so good. It’s convenient and walkable. My only complaint was how some people on my floor throw the door so loudly in the middle of the night when the hotel winning for the silence and peaceful space. Even so, I’ll have to go back soon!

Real talk, a Hotel Worthy of Praise.

Staff: Honestly speaking, Richard the GM & his entire staff were well spoken, attentive, knowledgeable & generous in their hospitality Location: Hell’s Kitchen nYc; a few blocks from time square, metro station, & awesome restaurants of every variety. Morning expresso a block away! Loved the location honestly, it was surprisingly loaded with things to do, although it is Manhattan! Lounge/bar: Kool lounge decor & bar area overlooking Hell’s Kitchen with easy views of time square & even the top of Empire State Building Room: I had a great view of the Hudson & the newly developed Hudson Yards buildings. For me, the room served its intended purpose Gym: 28th floor gym you see west to the Hudson all the way down to One World Trade Tower. Equipment is good for a full body workout, had fresh towels, disinfectant wipes & filtered with cups Conference center: Very nice area with comfortable seating areas large couch & two large comfortable arm chairs with a kool natural wood cut coffee table Rooftop: Unfortunately the exterior rooftop terraces were closed due to renovations, so that was disappointing for me as it was my primary reason for choosing this particular hotel above others…but I’m sure the renovation will be successful & maybe the hotel will offer me a discounted rate on my next visit if I were to choose to stay with them again ;) Pictures: I would argue hotel is better than pictures & do the rooftops justice Result: Pound for pound, a hotel worthy of praise…truly.

Great location and stay

Ideal location to catch the subway. Spent a lot of time in lower Manhattan and Brooklyn. Restaurants and CVS close by. As a mom traveling alone with a young child, neighborhood felt safe. Room was cozy but well designed to maximize space. Heat worked a little too well for me and even after I turned it off, took a while to cool off. Very clean. Bathroom walls were frosted glass so share a room with those you don't mind seeing you shower!

This hotel has passed my expectations. It is a small bedroom but the service, cleanliness, and proximity to all the activities around New York makes it perfect. This suits for tourists who need a place where to sleep and get ready for the next day. Juan Carlos, at the front desk, was amazing! He was very helpful and happy to assist you with guidance and tips for your traveling needs. I will come back there for sure. I stayed for 4 days and I had no complains. The bartender is also very nice. All the staff was always happy to help you.

NYC TWO DAYS

For NYC was a good deal. Generally clean, safe, friendly and close to Times Square. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom lights were motion activated and took a long time to turn off (walls were frosted glass), which meant when you used the bathroom at night the whole room lit up. Couldn’t beat the location!
