Let’s start with the good. It is in a great location near Times Square and the Theater District. The front desk staff was very pleasant and helpful. Our smoke detector was beeping. After being reported to the front desk it was replaced within 5 minutes. Check out time is noon, which gave us some extra time. They did hold out... More

After staying at the W-J in January 2012 on a business trip, I happily returned in January 2013 for a second visit. Big mistake! It was pretty basic, no frills, on my first trip, so I thought I knew what to expect, but now the management seems to be really cutting corners. My room was the cheapest option, a single... More

Stayed at this hotel in September 2009. The rooms were small but I believe this is standard in NY. The rooms were clean. The biggest problem we had was that the staff were really rude and unaccommodating. Our room was not the same as we had reserved and they basically said take it or leave it.

Got the WJ on Hotwire for around $200 per night and would not pay any more. The location is fantastic for theater, dinning, Times Square etc. The building is an old converted apartment building with 1 elevator serving 6 floors. We were on 3 so ended up taking the stairs most of the time. The rooms are tiny - even... More

This is the second time I've stayed here for business, each trip about a week. The location on 51st between 8/9 can't be beat for access to public transit, cabs, walking, restaurants, etc. The bathrooms are good with great products and showers--be careful: the showers easily flood the bathroom, so remember to turn the shower head away from the door....

This hotel is in a convenient location for anyone who needs to get downtown (the village and Wall St), across town (upper east side) or uptown (Upper west side). The rooms are really small and pokey. The building l and interiors look old, and in need of some refurbishment. I heard some weird banging noise on the radiators every now... More

Fantastic hotel for tourists, on the small side but then this didnt bother us as we spent most of the time exploring NY. We stayed for 7 nights and found it very clean, free wi-fi, excellent service and great location. Would recommend to anyone who wants to be in the centre without the huge prices of other hotels. Would definately... More

The lobby is very nice and clean, great and helpful staff. Elevator is small but that's no problem at all. Our room was on the 6th floor, standard double bed, very small but nice and cozy. Free internet, tv, safe and small gym. Housekeeping everyday, clean towels. Good value and close to Times Square. We will be back!
