Did The Job, Would Go Back.
Clean, small, great view, no iron but had blow-dryer. Minimalism but it works. Bar was fun. Like a hostel. A lot of college aged kids.

The bathroom setup made it so water from the shower could easily spill into the toilet area over a small lip, and there was no place for it to drain out there so it was just cold and wet

Pod stay
The pod is in a great location. It's very close to everything. The room was small, but worked great for what I needed. The rooms were super clean and it was very comfortable. I'll stay again when visiting New York city

Consistently Good
I've stayed at this hotel for many business trips to NY. It affordable, comfortable, and clean. The staff always helpful. I would not recommended the restaurant on site but there are a myriad of restaurant choices in the immediate area. If you're on your own, go for the bunk bed room as its setup os the most efficient.

Not worth the price
For the cost of this stay you would expect more. Yes, I understand it’s a micro hotel, but to have the shower completely clogged and needing to be snaked our first night was not a great start. Having the bathroom sink clogged and not fixed was also not ideal. The bed frame was broken and forced the bed to tilt down to the left. The TV didn’t work with the remote only able to lower the volume but not change any channels. The toilet ran constantly as well.

Rock hard beds
Very small - which we expected and would’ve been fine. But the bed was definitely not a queen bed and it was hard as a rock.
