Anyone expecting the Taj Mahal would be disappointed. However, for the price it was excellent value. Fabulous part of New York - where the real New Yorkers live. Subway will quickly take you to all the hot spots. Central Park nearby. Hop on Hop Off Tours have a stop practically at the front door of the hotel. Bathroom was clean... more

This hotel is being used for housing people who appear to be the equivilant of DHSS boarders. The hotel is very shabby & the staff are very sullen. The whole experience could easily put the average traveller off of returning to this wondeful city. The whole experience was one of feeling that we had been ripped off for a considerable... more

We booked this hotel on the net and after we did so we read a few very disturbing reports. We got worried. Why we did we have no idea. This hotel although with a few people actualy living in the hotel full time and dominating the lifts, we had a very pleasant stay. we would recomend it to anyone. Staff... more

This is a budget hotel, and while it has its flaws, it was convenient to seeing Manhattan and we got a good night's sleep every night. Location: The hotel is on 94th Street, a few steps off of Broadway. There's an entrance to the subway in front of the bodega ("94th Street Blueberry Farm") across 94th from the hotel. Most... more

This is a good hotel to stay at when you can't afford anything else closer to midtown. I even found parking on the same street (since there is alot of residence there), I just had to make sure it wasn't street cleaning time. There are plenty of garage for parking around but I didn't have to pay for it since... more

This is where I will be staying next time I visit Manhattan. Wonderful staf and very nice room. Great location to the subway and that is the absolute best way to get around. I have stayed at other hotels on Manhattan but this hotel is where I will be staying again. The bed was big and comfortable and the room... more

Some of you people expect to pay $100 a night for the W or Waldorf Astoria. If you are paying $100/night in NYC, LOWER YOUR EXPECTATIONS. I cannot believe some of your reviews, they are just plain ridiculous. I stayed here for 3 days/2 nights and had a very pleasant time. First of all, I paid only $100/night. For NYC,... more

Stayed with spouse for a few days of sightseeing in NYC. The hotel was fine enough when we first arrived but soon realized that we should of stayed elsewhere. The 'non-smoking' room might as well have been smoking since the smell from other room wafted in through the vents, dingy room with a slightly scary carpet (bring flip flops), a... more
