This property is great value because of its amazing location and the quality of the room - spacious, equipped with a fridge, coffee machine, tv, and microwave. However, the WiFi doesn’t work at all and they are unapologetic about this. Depending on your room, it seems you either have no windows or you overlook the street, and there were a number of trucks servicing the nearby buildings late at night and in the wee hours so noisy. I didn’t think it bad for solo travel though if you have other places to be that have WiFi and you just need a base for a few days.

Great spot!
Stay was great, but Hotels.com screwed up on the booking and it was not enjoyable to deal with them. I will go direct next time.

It's an inexpensive place, no elevator, everything is mid. Hot water, quiet, comfortable enough that I've stayed here twice now. You can't leave bags for the day as there's no one on duty - you just key in the front door and into your room with a code.

Charming and clean
This was a great and friendly space. The staff are not on call 24 hrs a day but enough for me. They managed to move me from the 5th floor to to the 2nd floor after one day! Thank you!! The stairs are steep because it is an old refurbished building.the “houseman” moved my luggage for me. It was clean, safe and charming. The staff brought my Uber eats up to my room and he even told me a tip was unnecessary.

Great place to stay in New York City
Great place to stay in New York City incredibly clean and quiet. They only issue is no elevator so be prepared to climb a few stairs. It’s worth the effort. I will stay there again.

There are a lot of steps and no elevator. Other than that it was very clean. The staff helped me walk my stuff to the top. It was quiet. I was very pleased with the experience.

Hotel doesn’t have an elevator and we were located on the 5th floor. Inside the room was a radiator that banged very loudly each night. Mattresses need to be updated.

Horrific experience
I said to the check in person, ‘my room number is 407. Is there no lift’ she replied ‘theres no lift.’ I said I had checked in online and she said ‘you can go straight up.’ When I got to the 4th floor it turned out I was on the wrong stairwell. I had to go back down and walk up another four flights of stairs with my suitcase. The room was filthy with garbage everywhere and the bed unmade. I had to telephone three times to get it fixed.

I liked the room size. Perfect for one individual. I was unaware that there was no elevator and I was on the 5th floor. Stairs are hard to climb and descend with luggage. Would recommend assistance or a note to allow people to know about the lack of elevators. There were ample food options in the neighborhood.

Really well priced if you’re looking for a place to sleep short term. Our bud was right up against the heater which felt like a fire risk. Didn’t like that we had to take our own trash downstairs. Other than that a really easy, convenient, place to stay!

Hotel was nice, not too shabby for my needs but there were drain flies all over the bathroom the entire time and holes in the bathroom door. We were also unable to adjust the heat and were sweating all night.
