Great location, that's all
Staff member told us our king size bed was unavailable and placed us in a terrible room on third floor. Good thing we spent every day and evening away from hotel. Worst room ever. Enjoyed the city and location.

Great location, but that's about it!
The room was small and not impressive; however you cannot beat the location! It was simply a place to rest your head at the end of that day so got the job done. Thanks Hotel Penn!

Good location, bad hotel
The location of this hotel is great, however for the price of the rooms it is not worth it. The hotel is located directly across from MSG and Penn station. It's old and seems run down. I would not stay here again. It is far too overpriced for what you get. Everything in the room and the entire hotel is old and in need of update. The sheets on the bed had wear spots and the carpet looked like it had been there since they built the hotel. I have stayed in NY before and the hotels I stayed in were for a better value and they were much nicer and also in good locations.

If you fly into JFK take the airtrain and subway over a taxi. We took a taxi from the airport to our hotel and spent almost $65 including tip and with traffic it took over two hours to go into the city. On the way back to the airport we did the subway which came up to around $7.50 and took only an hour. The subway was easy to navigate and a time and money saver.

Great location, very basic hotel
Terrificly convenient Midtown location at a great price. The hotel is worn and old - don't stay here if you plan to spend much time in the room.

Ideal for a short break
This is a very large, very busy hotel. The room was smaller than it looked on the website, but it had two double beds, small wardrobe, large tv, and a small but adequate bathroom (uk readers, think "travelodge"). No room to swing a cat, but a good "home base". Although the room looked like it needed an update, it was cleaned and given new towels every day, with the rubbish taken out and beds made daily. For a place to sleep,wash and prepare for the day, it was spot on for what we paid. You get what you pay for, and we were satisfied!

Short walk from hotel
Plan and do your homework on tourist attractions as prices can vary massively depending on where you pay. Get out and about early in the day, and make sure you have good shoes for a lot of walking.

Jay I heart NY
this is New York
This is an old well used hotel, It is clean, compact and an international melting pot. If you require a plush spa like hotel-SPEND the big bucks and stay at one, if you are on a budget and want easy acccess to touristville USA-then this is a bargain for you.

Location, location, location
Although it is an old, crowded hotel it makes it all up for its location. It is very easy to get anywhere in teh city from there. Yes, it may need a little bit more TLC but the sheets were clean every night, the bathroom was clean too. Besides, how much time do you spend at the hotel when you are in NYC?

Not great, but has everything you need
Staying at this hotel is a little bit like flying with Southwest or Ryanair. You get good price, a great location, just don't be expecting luxury - and anything that you might want is likely going to cost you additional fees. All that said, the hotel provides what most people going to New York are looking for - a clean room, a perfect central location and a cheap price (compared to other hotels in the area). The staff is fairly rude and to the point, but they get what they need to do done. The room is basic but provides a comfortable bed, TV and a clean bathroom. Aside from this, there was little else I was looking for in my stay, since I was not planning on spending much time at the hotel anyway. If you're coming to see the city and don't want to spend a fortune on the hotel, this is a good option. If you want the hotel to be an experience in and of itself, then try The Hilton or the W.
