This was the absolute worst place I've ever been in. You walk in and the front entrance wreaks of oil, the employees don't speak English, the lobby is connected to something like a gentlemens club, the elevators don't function properly... I could go on and on... on our level the hallways were very poorly lit, it was dark and disgusting... more

Trying to check in to this hotel was pretty difficult since none of the staff had ever heard a Scottish accent apparently and they were running 700 rooms on paper - no computer! The room was disgusting with tiles smashed on the shower floor and stained sheets. Had to check in again the next night as our key stopped working.... more

After watching something on TV about this being ranked dirtiest hotel 3 out of 4 years on this site, I thought I'd come here and share a little bit of my own experience.

I am surprised that the hotel generates enough revenue to continue to operate. We checked in and out within the first 2 hours. The rooms are... more

This is the second time I have attempted to write a review on this quality hotel. Ok so it's not quite 5* but it does a job. And it is situated in the centre of New York City so you have to expect a few rats and cockroaches. Staff were pretty helpful and the pets in the hotel just added... more

Tempted by the fantastic location and bargain basement price, myself and a friend stayed here for 2 nights. We went to New York for an experience, and this "hotel" was certainly a memorable part of it. None of the reviews I've read actually do the place justice. Seeing is believing, and most people think we're exaggerating when we tell them... more

If you are like me, you read all the reviews beforehand and still decided that you would stay here because of the price. I paid only $93 for a Saturday night (registered through a discount travel site) and saved more than $50. What you need to know if you are staying is the following: -They will allow you to check... more
