Exactly what I was looking for. Clean room with private bathroom at a great price. Roof deck terrace was a bonus. Fun location and steps from the subway.
Nice property, great price for the location and if you’d like to walk and just see the city, this is a great place to stay. Unlimited food and shopping options around.
The location was great! The room was clean. Staff was friendly and kept our bags until 3pm after check out. Check in and out done online which was nice. The tub clogged but it was whatever. Small room but this is NYC. Would stay again.
I loved the location - in the heart of the lower east side of Manhattan - and the room served its purpose as sleeping/showering quarters with heat. Its no frills with no maid service (unless you pay for it) and staff is only available during core hours. However, everything ran smoothly and the room was supplied with everything I needed. It was perfect for my objective - to explore the area and have a safe/clean place to sleep and take a shower. I will stay here the next time I am in town.

Comfortable room, polite staff, good wifi, strategic location. A bit pricey and the fact that reception is not always manned is a bit inconvenient but for NY is not bad.

This was an affordable spot in a great location! The contactless check-in, check-out made things easy. The amenities weren't great, but included what was needed for the most part.
