This was a cheap option and you will get what you pay for. On the positive, great location close to train, restaurants, and entertainment. If you’re not spending time in the room, this is great. The downsides were: uncomfortable bed and only three terrible pillows, small space, light fixtures broken, sticky floor, and the walls are paper thin. Also do not book on first floor(obv) you will be up all night.

Hotel exactly as described. Great if you use it to sleep and shower. Only a couple blocks from the train so was perfect for us jockeying to WTC and Rockefeller Center. Bed wasn’t great but not the worst I’ve slept in

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff seemed courteous and when we needed something they responded right away. The room was mostly clean, but there was dirt/dust collected in the handles of the nightstand. Personally didn’t like the soap because it smelled like old lady perfume but I know more people prefer that rose water scent than don’t. I didn’t like that the fridge and microwave were plugged in by an extension cord running from the outlet behind a nightstand across the room. Technically the room was pretty accessible but there definitely wasn’t enough room to turn a wheelchair around except maybe in the bathroom. Shower had a low, angled lip but also maybe it was too high for a chair to roll in. Also might have been difficult to reach hangers in wardrobe or hooks on wall because they’re too high. One of the sconces by bed was missing the glass shade. Bed was pretty comfortable and seemed a good height but could maybe have used a grab bar near the wall. WiFi is terrible and we could have used a guide to navigate TV or ability to cast from phone to TV. A fine place to sleep for a short stay, clean enough, comfortable and felt safe. Bathroom was really nice and seemed recently renovated. Since our room was at street level it would have been nice to a sound machine or white noise option to drown out late night bar noise. A twenty minute walk to Webster Hall was convenient and why we chose the Ridge.

Incredibly overpriced at $420 per night total. My room was directly across from the front desk, less than 6 feet from the main entrance. Zero privacy. While the room was clean, it had an uncomfortable memory foam mattress on what could best be described as a $150 platform frame fromTemu
Cheap furniture, horrid wall art. Commercial tile floor. Clean
Room maybe 10 x 9 for $420 total
Bathroom was at least new and best part of the stay.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The check in process was a bit complicated. I was unaware that I would be emailed my room information. Don’t know how it ended up in my spam folder. But i was able to get it figured out. The bathroom had a minor clog and had to stand in dirty water due to not having a clear drain. We also did not get clean towels. This may be my misunderstanding. Other than that, everything else was addressed well. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a budget friendly place within a convenient location in New York city.

Very clean room and great bed. Simple and small, but good value (for NYC), safe, and great location. There was a water leak in bathroom from room above us one night, but by our return next evening if was totally fixed and our ceiling tiles were brand new! Good places for coffee nearby. Our room faced Houston I was was worried about noise, but excellent soundproofing and what an amazing view of Midtown. Recommend!
