NYC TWO DAYS
For NYC was a good deal. Generally clean, safe, friendly and close to Times Square. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom lights were motion activated and took a long time to turn off (walls were frosted glass), which meant when you used the bathroom at night the whole room lit up. Couldn’t beat the location!

Really great location so ideal as a base. Room was very basic and had a musty smell. The bedding was quite poor quality. I wouldn't be in a hurry to return but the location and price were good

Great location and stay
Ideal location to catch the subway. Spent a lot of time in lower Manhattan and Brooklyn. Restaurants and CVS close by. As a mom traveling alone with a young child, neighborhood felt safe. Room was cozy but well designed to maximize space. Heat worked a little too well for me and even after I turned it off, took a while to cool off. Very clean. Bathroom walls were frosted glass so share a room with those you don't mind seeing you shower!
