The room was a little claustrophobic and lacking in appealing decor. A large mirror to reflect light and the small window, some art on the large stark tv wall and replacing the menacing portrait of a man above the bed with something more appealing would improve the room a lot. But the vanity area, closet, and bathroom were nice. I’ve found this hotel to be overpriced compared to others in the area. Especially considering it doesn’t have a restaurant or bar other than the buffet breakfast area. There are other hotels at this price point with more amenities and larger rooms.

This historic hotel is a little gem in the heart of Greenwich Village. Close to Washington Square Park and NYU, it is within walking distance of several restaurants and convenience stores. The hotel itself provides many amenities, like bathrobe, slippers, and umbrella. It also has windows that open for a little fresh air. I would definitely stay there again.

Hotel fine for brief stay, albeit older. But charm intact and fabulous location. Seemed clean, but when seated in bathroom could plainly see mold issues around tub grout, especially on underside of grab bar.

This is a gem of a hotel in a gem of a neighborhood. Nothing too fancy but clean and the staff are wonderful. Our go-to when we're in NYC. The Greenwich Village location is away from the tourist areas, quiet, with easy access to the subway, restaurants, and right on the best people-watching park in the city, Washington Square.

I loved reading about the musical history in this hotel, the former Hotel Earle, and even though Joan Baez and Bob Dylan stayed here and Baez later referred to it as “that crummy hotel over Washington Square” (haha) that was not our experience - it was perfectly suitable, clean, pretty quiet, pleasant staff and in a great location. We didn’t know from the listings here that the bar/restaurant was closed for renovations, but there are SO many amazing places in the vicinity that it wasn’t any problem.

For a stay in Greenwich Village, the hotel's location is ideal. Steps away from Washington Square, proximate to subways, shopping, NYU, walking to Union Square, jazz clubs and restaurants galore. Room was very clean if dated. Front desk staff helpful, and the free breakfast most welcome. With the taxes the rooms are not cheap, but its NYC.

A beautiful hotel, well-maintained. We appreciated the friendly staff. Good breakfast options. A nice area with coffee and tables in the back of the lobby. Cons: room was very small (it's New York so to be expected); you have to request a mini-fridge in advance.
