Great central location. Rooms were very small but I think that’s a NYC thing. Cleaning staff was excellent and decor was cute. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. The downside was that the water pipes were very loud at night. Beds were very comfortable in our entire party slept well. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Not quiet from a street side room but maybe that’s the NYC charm. Beautiful old building. Besides the street noise, very comfortable. Dining room opening soon.

We loved the staff. They were friendly and willing to help us in every way. The hotel was very close to many things we wanted to see and access to a bus or subway was great. The rooms are older but had everything we needed. The beds were super soft and comfy.

We had a wonderful stay. The room was very clean, cozy and there was great quality mattress/pillows/towels etc. This hotel is near many famous landmarks and is very walkable but does not feel busy on the street. The area was safe, convenient, there was plenty of food and it was easy to get to LGA for our flight. The breakfast/coffee shop inside was great and when the restaurant opens I can imagine it will be excellent. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend to others. The staff was very kind and accommodating. The hotel was very quiet at night, with no street traffic/outside noise.

The location is perfect. Very accessible to all of the main attractions in NY lots of food carts around the area and the train station is around the corner. Rooms are interesting and the room we had was definitely made for one person, thankfully we were barely in the room. There was no accessible microwave and instead of offering to use a kitchen or something they sent up an entire microwave…. In a room that’s already very small. The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to help their guests. Overall the stay was great, would definitely recommend but just be sure to eat out of have a room that’s big enough for a microwave lol.

Showering, no matter how long you attempt to run water to warm it, it was lukewarm at best. This was told to staff by multiple people (we spoke to others staying in the hotel) and they stated the same issue and brought it to the staff members.
