I chose this on the strength of the good reviews here, and particularly because of the price and location. As others say, it's about 15 minutes walk from Times Square and the top of 5th Avenue, which means that you can do a lot without getting the subway. Sure, you could stay somewhere swankier, with breakfast, tv, ensuite etc, but... more

Happy to recommend the Sutton Residence for budget travellers. If you are on a budget and willing to share a bathroom with other guests then you can't do much better than this place. The location is spot on for all sight-seeing. It is within feasible walking distance to Grand Central Terminal, Rockefeller Centre, Empire State Building, Macy's, Madison Square Garden,... more

Even before I left home, I received good tips from Bruce, which allowed me to get easily from JFK to the address by SuperSaver. And he gave me the address of a good restaurant for a family brunch. The exterior is not very promising, but once you have climbed the steps and walked inside and met Bruce you feel at... more

I was staying at Sutton for 2 months from Nov 08-Jan 09. I was travelling alone and was later joined by my sisters who spent 4 weeks with me... Sutton is great! So convenient (very close to Grand Central station) and a 24 hour drugstore,Duane Reade right across which was where I bought most of my groceries! The room was... more

Met our three C's - Clean, Close and Cost Efficient. It was a snap to get to from Newark Airport via skytrain, rail to Penn Station and subway. A warmer and more welcoming host in Bruce can hardly be found. The house is ideally located (a 15 minute walk from Times Square), secure and amazingly quiet. With several bathrooms, computer... more

I had a great stay at Sutton Residence recently while I was on vacation in NYC. The place is strategically located about 7 mins walk from Grand Central St. It is clean, well kept, and quiet, hence, you will feel right at home staying here, plus you are also free to use the kitchen and the living room. Just remember... more

I totally have to agree with the reviews made before. I also booked online with no problems. There was even someone waiting for us on the street to make sure we're on the right way, since we arrived late in the evening. The location is just perfect, I felt safe and comfortable all the time. You have to share your... more

We stayed here for 5 nights in December 2008. I booked online with no problems. The room was spotless, as was the bathroom. A really great atmosphere, with access to the kitchen. A good location too - about 5 mins walk from Grand Central. The neighbourhood was good too, we felt very safe. Great value too - extremely reasonable, particularly... more

We booked our stay through email a few months before we went with no problems. Our emails were always answered promptly. The location is great, and we found it simple to get from JFK using the airtrain and subway. Times square is about a 15min walk away, and the subway is easy to use to get further afield. The rooms... more
