Washington Square Hotel was the perfect spot to pick for a stay in the city. It has the perfect location. It had easy access to the subway. Shopping, dining and drinking locations were within a short 1-3 minute walk. The Square is right across the street and was a great place to hang out with coffee or lunch and just take in the city. The area felt incredibly safe and was so much quieter than other areas I visited. The Hotel itself is on the older side, but it felt modern and very comfortable. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. 10/10 location in my book.

Efficient Stay, Not Friendly.

I was so excited to stay for once in the village, chose Washington Square hotel for the beautiful Art Deco decor, charm, and Location. I got all of that in my stay! Location was perfect even though I was a little concerned about many reviews referencing the homeless if you walked out to the left. To the left is Washington Square, a beautiful sunny park, and there were a good deal of homeless people there, but they were active, playing Chess with passerby's, doing the best they can. Sad that they are not taken better care of in this country, but not threatening at all! The front desk checkin and checkout were very efficient, nothing to complain about there. But unlike the warm coziness of the hotel, not one of the staff was friendly,or warm. They were just efficient. No conversation beyond the answer required. The Shower was amazing, see picture. .The Restaurant in the lower level was sub standard when it comes to service, and even worse than the hotel staff- they were just rude and uncaring. Not sure if the hotel and the restaurant are of one, or seperate entities. I will be staying in the village on my next visit, but probably not at Washington Square Hotel. 😥

Perfect location, the hotel is older but very clean. The rooms are smaller, however, when in NYC, you don't spend much time in your room.

Good but challenging

The hotel is lovely and has beautifully done ceramic tiles on the walls. It was quiet and clean and service was good. There were few working plugs in the room so charging devices requires sharing the two that worked. The hotel build itself as accessible but it is not. We found out the hard way. Breakfast looked good but there is no way to the dining room if you have a disability. There are 3 stairs to get in to the hotel and the bath tub is not accessible. Had we known we would have booked another hotel. A nice place for someone ablebodied.

The lobby, cafe and dining area were very cool, and even though the room itself was small, it was clean and just what me and my girlfriend needed, because we really just slept there and explored the area. I recommend.
