My room was the size of a closet, i figuredit was because I booked through Expedia, but i stayed there last year and i had a normal size room, staff wasn't very helpful. They didn't clean the room each day.

Property is in conveniently situated around Time square. Shopping, dining and touristy things are all close by. Hotel was decent. The only issue I had was hot water was out during day time.

Showed up to check in and were told our room wasnt ready and to come back later, and when we got back they had given away our room and they downgraded us to a standard room instead when we paid for the deluxe one. This room had no view, the outlets were falling apart, the wall paper was pealing. Great location, terrible hotel. This place is great for people who dont care about feeling comfortable in their room! I usually give service workers the benefit of the doubt and just suck it up if something minor happens, but i was miserable because of someone elses incompetence.

Great location but that's it.
Location is great. However you get what you pay for. Customer service has to improve significantly, especially fron desk. A little smile and courtesy goes a long way. I don't think I would stay here again.

This hotel is a great option for anyone coming to the city with a full schedule. As soon as you step out the door you are nearly at Time Square and all the related shopping and dining options. The rooms are not huge, and they show their age, and the bathrooms are downright tiny, but it's about what you would expect from a hotel in NYC. They do however really need to retrain their front desk staff. At checkin the woman behind the counter couldn't be bothered to stop the conversation she was having with someone else there (I have to assume a maintenance person) that was not at all work related. Rather than properly checking me in, she took my card, handed me room keys, and went right on talking with her friend. No explanation of amenities, didn't bother telling us where the elevators were, or what floor our room was on or anything. Other than that, it's a perfectly acceptable place to fall asleep for a few hours a night in between outings in the city.

I had a reservation on Expedia already and when I checked in the lady still charged my card the full price of one night after telling her I had a reservation. I didn’t notice I was charged for another night until 12am and I went down and a different man that was down there corrected it. I also had an uber eats order sent to me the following morning (2 waters and an energy drink) and they did not safeguard it until I came down. I was missing items that were purchased and when I asked what happened to my things they told me they didn’t know. Not the best hotel but close to Times Square.

The stay was okay because we were in the city to explore not necessarily stay at the property. The pictures for the property on the website are very deceiving and the rooms are just so so. Our room did not have a thermostat so we had to keep the window open for air when we stayed in the room and overnight. The elevators are very slow for the number of people staying at the property.
No thermostat and the little sign says use the thermostat on the wall hmmm

One and done
This place needs a lot of work. The walls and doors need fixed and repainted. Problems with the thermostat which took 4 hours to get maintenance to somewhat fix. Linens were fresh and clean. Housekeeping very nice. Front staff were mixed- some were nice others not so much. Would not choose to stay here again.
