Everyone was so nice, I wasn't aware there wasn't an elevator and my room was on the fifth floor... I had a lot of luggage and work gear and the guy working here helped me take it all up the stairs! 😁 Also wasn't aware that they couldn't hold luggage after 3 pm... I had to take all of my luggage to work with me on checkout day because I couldn't have come back to get it by 3.

The location for this trip was ideal. I really appreciate the front desk staff taking our luggage at 9am. The hotel was very noisy, I had no hot water the last evening I was there and I got mixed messages regarding transportation to the airport.

So for the most part I liked staying at Chelsea inn, beware NO ELEVATORS. After walking for so long and exploring the city having to walk up multiple flight of stairs was not fun. But other than that the property was nice small but nice had enough room what I needed, it was close enough to every thing. Also great communication from the employees !

The staff at The Chelsea was fantastic. I needed first floor accommodations but at the time of my reservation the first floor was being renovated and unavailable. To my surprise, the information that was sent to me the night before my stay, included my first-floor request. Wilma saw that when the first floor was available, she immediately fulfilled that request. This is my second stay at The Chelsea Inn. I would highly recommend staying here. A delightful experience. Thank you.

I loved my room with a coffee maker, microwave and fridge. Near subway and places to eat. But just not enough Kleenex and toiletries( look nasty to touch). I hope they individual portions toiletries or just clean the reusable containers really good. Good thing I bring my own toiletries. I would love to stay here again.

Overall this is a pretty good value for the money but considering how much they charge I don’t think it’s unreasonable for them to: 1) replace broken blinds (the blinds in the room didn’t rise or fall and couldn’t be opened or closed) they were stuck down and partially opened. One section of the blinds was just broken off and not replaced. 2) get the window to be able to open - the window had no ability to stay open 3) clean the window - it was filthy 4) take the stickers off the cheap particleboard furniture they assembled that say “A” “B” “C” etc identifying the parts. This looks like the kind of cheap furniture you’d buy at target or ikea but the cabinet door was ripped off so you can see the hinges. It looks like garbage. Considering it’s $200/night, you can do better. 5) get some lighting bedside. You literally have to walk across the room to shut off the lights at night then stumble through the dark back to bed with maybe your phone light. Get a simple lamp on the night stand. 6) get some soaps etc in the bathroom that aren’t filthy. The containers for the shampoo / soap and hand soap were filthy on the exterior. 7) offer some cream or at the very least sugar for the coffee. It’s nice they have a coffee pot in the room. It wouldn’t be much to have sugar packs. Like I mentioned the overall place is a decent value for the location and what you get. But these are pretty minor adjustments that are not unreasonable to expect given how much your guests are paying.

I overall do recommend and would come back because of the good $ value. It's an apartment building converted into a hotel. The rooms are very cozy and the walk up could be challenging if you're lugging a large suitcase, but service is good, the room is clean and kept up well. Overall good value for $ (heads up if you're traveling for work and are relying on the Wifi, don't).

The Chelsea didn’t really feel like a hotel. It felt more like apartments that had been converted to hotel rooms. The condition and cleanliness of the room and bathroom weren’t great. The frame of my bed was broken. For the price I paid I definitely felt like it wasn’t worth it to stay there. The only good part was that the manager I texted with was very helpful.
