The breakfast was passable but the staff person didn’t speak English so it was difficult to find out what was available. We didn’t realize we could have eggs so we had pastry.

The location is just fantastic. Can’t be beat. Close to grand central terminal. The rooms were clean. The service was excellent. The area felt very safe and super convenient to get around by foot, Uber or subway. The only negative is that while it is understandably a “pod” there could have been a more private partition between the bed and the bathroom rather than a half opaq-ish glass sliding door. No locks on a bathroom that has a sliding door was weird. Plus no vent fan in the bathroom makes for a not so ideal situation. Would definitely stay here again!! Good job Pod39 team!!

My stay at POD39 was pleasant and comfortable. The staff were friendly and responsive. The first night we arrived there was an issue with the toilet not flushing but it was resolved immediately and there were no problems for the remainder of our stay. The room that we had on the second floor did not have any natural day light due to the layout/structure of the building as the windows faced the rooms on the other side of the hotel building. The upper floors get plenty light though from my previous stays with POD. Overall, this was a wonderful stay in a great location, reasonably priced, and very friendly service. Highly recommended.
