Overall, our stay was good and matched the price we paid. The location was great, with easy access to the train. The room was generally clean, but it wasn’t serviced during our stay, and there were no trash cans in either the room or the bathroom. The elevator wasn’t working properly, and on one occasion we had to walk up all six flights of stairs

Check in and out was smooth. The staff are very helpful especially Bishou. He was very attentive, cordial, and accommodating. The room had a lot of outlets, functional ac, a fridge, balcony with city views to the right and chair that was great for watching tv or putting your shoes on. The pillows were not tiny as the other reviews stated and there was a functional elevator. There is no bar as listed in some places but a cafe and candy store next to the hotel. If you go a couple avenues down you can find eateries. Look forward to using again if in the area for a night or two.

The staff were very helpful and tried their best to deal with and make up for the issues we had, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, there were far too many issues. They are just starting up so it explains it, but it was still a very poor experience.

The room was okay overall, but I feel it could have been managed and maintained better. Some things need more attention, such as the microwave and cups. The restroom supplies should also be checked and refilled regularly. For example, shampoo and conditioner should be replenished when they run out. It would also be helpful to have basic items like a reusable toothbrush and Colgate available. Overall, the room was fine, but better management and regular checking of these essentials would improve the experience.

First time staying here I would say the staff is very friendly. My deposit was waived and was able to check out at 12 noon on Sunday. However, as a brand new hotel I was disappointed the room I chose was very small, was not properly cleaned, the bathroom was even smaller including the shower, I had no blow dryer, the shower was not cleaned prior to very hard to get in and out the shower that’s how small it was. Not sure if there is a shortage on housekeeping but that definitely needs to be worked on. The ice machine was down over my stay, at this point it should be considered for microwaves to be placed in certain rooms because the ones downstairs everyone uses and do not work to their full potential.

It was good for the price. Decent sized rooms and decent beds. Cute bathroom. We didn’t have hand soap in our room so I asked for some and they said they “don’t do hand soap”. So we had to reach into the shower and use the shower gel every time we washed our hands. There’s also a known issue with their rooms’ smoke detector sensors. It will randomly go off and they won’t do anything about it. They will only give you one key because if you need another it will deactivate the original, and the keys themselves apparently only last for 24 hours so you need to get a new room key every single day. Whoever the front desk lady was on our checkout date was super sweet and waived the late checkout fee for us since we asked hours ahead of the checkout time! Overall okay experience, not sure if I’d stay again though.

I am so disappointed to have to leave this review. This is my 3rd time booking this hotel. I booked it a 3rd time because the other 2 times were pleasant stays for me. However, this weekend was terrible. I checked in to my room with my partner, I was given a room on the 6 floor, front desk staff was aware that I had informed him that my partner is scared of heights and may need to request a lower floor, front desk staff was okay with this. So that’s what ended up happening we had to switch the room, after front desk staff went upstairs and checked our room to make sure we didn’t use anything I was provided a new room key on the 4th floor, upon walking in I can already see that this room was not serviced by housekeeping and if it was done it was done poorly. Floor was dirty, found a dirty wash rag behind the bed, the shower wasn’t clean, I had no blow dryer or my amenities, and my fire alarm had no cover. I didn’t say anything because I was already tired and had checked in late. After a few hours I’m in the shower and the alarm starts going off and I don’t think much of it because I was taking a warm shower. After

I am extremely disappointed with my third stay at this hotel. My previous two visits were great, which is why I returned, but this experience was unacceptable. After requesting a lower floor due to my partner's fear of heights, we were moved to another room that was clearly not properly cleaned. The floors and shower were dirty, there was a used washcloth behind the bed, no blow dryer or toiletries, and the smoke detector was missing its cover. Later that night, the smoke alarm repeatedly went off for no reason, waking us from our sleep. The overnight front desk employee admitted he didn't know what to do, never apologized, and simply removed the alarm, leaving us without a working smoke detector for the rest of our stay. No one replaced it or offered us another room despite promising to do so. Housekeeping later cleaned the room poorly, left the shower dirty, forgot soap, and even threw away some of our sealed personal belongings, which I thankfully recovered. At checkout, I explained everything. The front desk employee was apologetic, but no compensation or resolution was offered. As a returning guest, I expected much better service, cleanliness, and concern for guest safety. I cannot recommend this hotel based on this experience.

Check in was fine even though I booked this last minute for 1 night. The beds were comfy but the lighting was poor and dim, the remote wasn't working and the front desk couldn't fix or replace it. The towels smelled like mildew and there was no soap. Keep in mind there is no ironing board or iron, no coffee pot, no mini-fridge, no breakfast. The good thing is that this place is close to a train station and the neighborhood isn't sketchy. You get what you pay for.

This was apparently the 1st week this hotel at this location was open. Since I booked on hotels.com, it took the staff a little bit to treat my reservation check-in correctly, but afterwards it was alright. The room was good, but as one of the people booking a room the 1st week, there was no garbage bin or can in the room (odd), I had to call for the TV remote, and the ice machine wasn’t working. Those things should hopefully be fixed by next week, but the King Sized bed was large, the streaming channels worked great & was in HD, and no complaints on the shower/bath room. Unfortunately there’s no breakfast or dining area outside of the room, and you likely would want to bring your own deodorant & bar soap to be on the safe side. I would give this hotel a 4/5 for now, and hopefully it has a least a business center & microwave for it’s guests & doesn’t become a homeless shelter (as unfortunately too many good NYC hotels became).
