We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Chelsea. The staff was helpful and our accommodation was clean and spacious. We loved the neighborhood which was full of delicious restaurants, including the restaurant adjacent to the hotel. We did not eat our breakfast there, but the lunch was really nice.

For an inexpensive hotel the Chelsea is to be cheerfully recommended. Rooms were comfortable and clean if a bit barren. I liked that I could control the heat in each of the rooms. There's no lobby to meet friends but there is a cafe on street level that seems to be part of the hotel and is very handy. They serve delicious food and are very friendly as are is the hotel staff. A good deal all around.

Single room - cheap but shared bathroom

Booked a single room. Very small with single bed. Didn't realise when i booked but it had a shared bathroom. There was only one bathroom containing both shower and toilet so at one point i couldn't use the toilet as i had to wait for someone to stop showering. Not ideal.
