The hotel greatly exceeded my expectations. There is a great area where you can sit, have hot chocolate, coffee, and heat up any food you have. I was surprised the rates were so reasonable when I found it on Expedia, and the service was exactly what you look for in a hotel. I will be recommending this hotel for anyone who wants a great stay in a place where you feel safe comfortable and not breaking the bank and right next to so many attractions , I will definitely be coming here again.
Bathtub/ shower has if you need any.
TV with the desk phone chair
The comfortable pillow top mattress with each side having enough room for plugs and to charge and put you things next to you.

The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. And if you just want a clean, safe place to crash, it is a good choice. I would bring my own soap and shampoo though. Close to subways and across from a Whole Food Market.

The best bang for your buck in this area, given the stark price differences in the East Village. The only issue we had was that the shower wasn't giving hot water, which was fixed right away when the mechanic showed up at 9am. So make sure to do your room check first thing when you arrive, rather than find out at 8 am like us. Either way, we felt safe and were able to navigate the city easily from this area.
