This place is kind of a dump but if you want a cheap place near Times Square, but not all that cheap, it's not bad. Just not very well maintained. A little bit of attention to fixing some things that were kind of dirty/nasty would have gone a long way. There was just one ice machine and it broke while there. The other ice machines had not been operational for a long time. Great location close to Times Square, but that's about it. Ask for a low floor because elevators were very difficult to operate.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I will be very honest. This might have been the biggest disappointment in 50+ years of hotels. Sheets dirty. Soap dispenser not working. Day flies or whatever those insects are called flying out of the toilet when I opened the lid. Noise so loud that only the white noise from air condition helped. Then when I complained to the manager he offered me a smaller room. Sure, he changed the sheets and sent up a bottle of soap. But my God! And the elevator is almost certainly the worst in town. Expect a 5-10 minute wait. Just a terrible experience even for a 3-star property (oh, I paid over $300 per night).

WARNING: This place does not accept one night stays whatsoever. It doesn't matter how far in advance you booked it or that you have a reservation. They will not honor it and will reject you leaving you stranded. Expedia's systems did not catch this - shame on Expedia. Shame on the hotel staff for not being accommodating and not allowing a one time exception for a technical error that was out of our control. Yes, Expedia refunded our money, but it was not worth the time lost and aggravation.
