Upon check in even though we paid in full they charge an extra $22 per day. For what? I don’t know what for. The hotel is stripped down, not even tissues in the room. When I asked for a box they offered me a roll of toilet paper. The location is excellent for walking to Broadway shows but it is a place to sleep, no extras.

My room was very close to the elevator which has been a noisy adventure at other hotels, but my room was absolutely quiet, which was great for sleeping.

Hotel was good but "restaurant" was lacking.

Front desk was great! Housekeeping was great! Great location. "Restaurant" was lacking. It was not a restaurant. Just served pastries in the morning. I've never stayed at a hotel where the coffee wasn't complimentary-until here. Even the Pod on 39th had complimentary coffee and filtered water. Also the Pod 39 serves actual food in the evening at the restaurant.

The bed was comfortable and the hotel is close to everything and the Subway was super close in the 42st. It’s a nice place to stay if you only planing to be outside for long time because rooms are not that spacious.

Convenient and very clean

Location is perfect for a good time in Times Square. The staff are very welcoming and the service for towels and cleanliness was very prompt and perfect. I wish there were separate containers for recycling and trash in the rooms.

This is an ideal hotel for a solo traveler. Rooms are very small obviously, but provide decent enough storage space for your bags and clothing. My only complaint was that the room smelled horribly of stinky feet. They really need to shampoo the carpets or use something to absorb that smell. The elevator situation was a bit of a pain because you had to take two (one to the lobby and one to your room) and it was difficult to tell when the second one was coming, but at least it felt safe. One day on my way out (and in a rush) I asked the front desk for a new roll of TP and they just handed it to me over the counter, so I had to go all the way back up to drop it off, which was inconvenient and kind of embarrassing. I had originally tried calling down from my room but the phone in my room didn’t work. Anyway, I’d stay there again but only as a solo traveler and I think if I get another room that smells like that I’d ask to move.

Close to lots of plays and E train station which makes it super easy to get there from JFK. Big Apple Market right around the corner is a major plus.
