Will stay again!

This was an amazing location for the price. The room was on the smaller side but we expected that. It was spotless! The staff was super nice. The hotel was quiet. There was never a long wait for the elevators. We will stay here again.

I think this was my 7th time staying here. I have lost count. It’s so convenient to everything I need when I stay in NYC. The staff is great, the price is reasonable for the area and I always feel comfortable. The mattress was my only issue this time. Just a little flat/lumpy but probably just needs a flip. Other than that, another enjoyable stay🙂

Imagine thinking you found the perfect hotel in NYC in a good location. Imagine the disappointment to have no hot water for two days, and it is freezing outside. What a disaster, a hotel full of people with no hot water for a shower. Too many other hotel options, don’t take a chance and book somewhere else.

Rooms were adequate. Small, but we weren’t in the rooms except to sleep. Had enough areas to charge devices. For a weekend of shopping and site seeing the small space was sufficient and price good. Would stay again for a similar weekend.

First time in this Pod and the experience was so good. It’s convenient and walkable. My only complaint was how some people on my floor throw the door so loudly in the middle of the night when the hotel winning for the silence and peaceful space. Even so, I’ll have to go back soon!

Real talk, a Hotel Worthy of Praise.

Staff: Honestly speaking, Richard the GM & his entire staff were well spoken, attentive, knowledgeable & generous in their hospitality Location: Hell’s Kitchen nYc; a few blocks from time square, metro station, & awesome restaurants of every variety. Morning expresso a block away! Loved the location honestly, it was surprisingly loaded with things to do, although it is Manhattan! Lounge/bar: Kool lounge decor & bar area overlooking Hell’s Kitchen with easy views of time square & even the top of Empire State Building Room: I had a great view of the Hudson & the newly developed Hudson Yards buildings. For me, the room served its intended purpose Gym: 28th floor gym you see west to the Hudson all the way down to One World Trade Tower. Equipment is good for a full body workout, had fresh towels, disinfectant wipes & filtered with cups Conference center: Very nice area with comfortable seating areas large couch & two large comfortable arm chairs with a kool natural wood cut coffee table Rooftop: Unfortunately the exterior rooftop terraces were closed due to renovations, so that was disappointing for me as it was my primary reason for choosing this particular hotel above others…but I’m sure the renovation will be successful & maybe the hotel will offer me a discounted rate on my next visit if I were to choose to stay with them again ;) Pictures: I would argue hotel is better than pictures & do the rooftops justice Result: Pound for pound, a hotel worthy of praise…truly.

Great location and stay

Ideal location to catch the subway. Spent a lot of time in lower Manhattan and Brooklyn. Restaurants and CVS close by. As a mom traveling alone with a young child, neighborhood felt safe. Room was cozy but well designed to maximize space. Heat worked a little too well for me and even after I turned it off, took a while to cool off. Very clean. Bathroom walls were frosted glass so share a room with those you don't mind seeing you shower!
