The whole process is basically contact free, which is perfect for self-sufficient travelers. Instructions to check in were clear and easy. Everything was hassle free. The room was clean and well equipped. The location in the Bowery is wonderful, steps to subway stations, Soho, Little Italy, West/East Village. Limitless food options right around every corner. There were front desk attendants there at all times that were always friendly, but since the experience was so seamless we didn’t require assistance for anything, except when they were kind enough to hold our luggage after check out for a couple of hours.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I loved the location - in the heart of the lower east side of Manhattan - and the room served its purpose as sleeping/showering quarters with heat. Its no frills with no maid service (unless you pay for it) and staff is only available during core hours. However, everything ran smoothly and the room was supplied with everything I needed. It was perfect for my objective - to explore the area and have a safe/clean place to sleep and take a shower. I will stay here the next time I am in town.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was small. OK for a place to lay your head a few hours. Bed felt like a non luxury box spring, 3 wilted pillows on queen bed, no soap in shower dispenser, no snacks or water in rooms just a place to lay your head. Not a bad place to choose, but not a good place to book for vacation, special days. Just a place to "safely" lay your head til 11AM. Quiet but near EVERYTHING.
