Super convenient location, and the room sufficed just fine for a few nights. However our AC unit was very old and had trouble keeping the room cool, and there was a large gap next to the unit just open to the air due to janky installation. I also found a few hairs in the bathroom that weren't ours.

It was excellent for the price point. No frills, no refrigerator or mini bar in the room. But it was clean, internet worked and there is a small store connected to it, that you can get water and candy. The location was great, in the heart of everything NY.

Location, location, location. This is an old hotel with some wear and tear, but it was clean and we loved the premium room with queen bed and bunk beds - it was like having a suite with two rooms! Hotels.com has the wrong check out time - it should be 11 a.m. and not noon and the property said they've been asking hotels.com to change it for a long time. We were on an unseasonably hot spring day and the air conditioner is a window unit that looked a bit old. It was blowing in our face and making loud noises, but it was fine. Again, location, location, location - SO CLOSE to Times Square and the show we came into the city to see. Friendly staff. Comfy beds and pillows and clean rooms.
