"Staying at POD NYC was an overall great experience. It was in a very convenient location in Manhattan and we could just go downstairs and find our choice of shops, food and it was very close to Times Square which was the center of everything during Christmas and New Year activities. The restroom was a bit small and made of frosted glass, it was a bit problematic for us since I was visiting with my younger kid, a 17 yr old. I used to take shower and get ready before he even woke up. Apart from that detail everything else was perfect about POD and the staff was also very welcoming and nice. "
