Tiny, but comfortable and well located

This hotel is nothing fancy, but it provided all the necessities, including a very comfortable bed, a good shower, and a clean, neat room. It was in a wonderful location, only a half block from the Canal Street Station and at the intersection of SoHo, Little Italy, and Chinatown. The bedroom and bathroom are quite small, but if you’re planning to be out all day exploring, it’s perfectly fine. We found many wonderful coffee shops, restaurants, and stores nearby and it was pretty close to the Blue Note, where we saw a great jazz show. I would stay again.

The room is very small you have to climbed over your partner to get out of bed. One cleaning service per stay. Free breakfast only serve toast bagel and yogurt. You get all night noises from cars trucks people as you are so close to Canal street. Ear plugs ate provided in the room.

Basic place to crash. I work in the city and sometimes need a place to stay overnight. If I ever need another basic place I might consider it. Staff are very friendly and professional. Very, very clean and well maintained, big salute to the maintenance team. No art on the wall, simplest possible furnishings in rooms. No USB ports. Beds small but pretty comfortable, bathroom was quite nice, clearly remodeled recently. Now the bad news. No curtains, just wrinkled shades that let light in around the sides in the early morning. Door to room needs a sweep underneath to block light from hallway. Street noise was very loud with music blaring from cars until 11:30. Bring on the second floor wasn’t great. On the other hand the walls are pretty soundproof. Breakfast was disappointing. A basic keurig machine was not enough to handle a group of tourists in front of me and I never got a cup of coffee. Bagels and yogurt were provided but with no spoons for the yogurt. No fruit, not even a banana. Just a couple of tweaks could have made this much better. Fill up a coffee dispenser with coffee every morning and use the keurig for decaf and for when it runs out. Provide spoons and apples and bananas. Easy fixes.

You have to pay an extra amount for cleaning services and there is no microwave in the room only the lounge area. Meaning that if you need to heat up food after 9 PM, you’re not able to.
