Staff were very helpful and friendly. They let us store our luggage before check-in and after check-out. The room itself was nice and clean, and the balcony had a great view of the street below. The location is convenient for getting around by subway and is great if you're hoping to spend time in Little Italy and Chinatown. All the breakfast locations the staff suggested were great. I had no issues with my stay here and I would readily recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a place to stay in NYC.

Super convenient to restaurants and shopping. Loved having the balcony and seeing the sunset from the roof. The lighting in the rooms needed help and there was no streaming options available. Other than that it was fine.

I’ve stayed here many many times over the years, have booked multiple rooms for family members during graduation week etc and it’s always been great. However my most recent stay was marred by two really awful guests on my floor with a dog that barked all night and very loud music played from 8am. I was surprised that dogs are welcomed in hotel rooms but apparently they are. Despite ringing the front desk three times during the night and again in the morning and bringing it up during check out, the hotel only apologised and didn’t bother to extend any goodwill gesture. That was particularly disappointing. So while The Allen has been a great place to stay over the last 5 years, I won’t be staying again.

Very disappointed. Poorly managed a bad situation.

We have staid at this property before. This time things went very wrong. We awoke to find that we had no hot water in the shower. They could not fix it and pushed us out at 11AM. Never offered access to another shower. Just apologized and sad the manager would be in touch about a refund. Of course they didn't and I had to call them. Then they only refunded $50. This room was over $300 - which is a lot for a place to not help us get to a hot shower and call us to kick us out at 11AM. I will not return. I'm sure a better managed property could have given us access to another room and I think their refund amount is insulting.
