Great hotel for the price. Rooms were small but clean and adequate. Nice, quiet residential neighborhood but still within blocks of restaurants and Central Park. Staff was friendly and helpful. Would stay there again.

My wife and I just returned from a 1 night stay here. If your just looking for a room to crash, its a great place. everything is small. We stayed in a "suite" room that had an extra small bed, microwave, refrigerator and table. It was $10 more for the extra space and worth it. We didnt see a thermostat,... More

Great hotel for the price. Superb location 80th/Broadway. Rooms small and basic however, one comes to NYC to be out and about. If you prefer brand hotels skip this. If you're willing to be flexible it's great value.

I had a reservation at the sister property of the Travel Inn on 42nd. Due to some issues there, their manager was kind enough to inform me about them as well as telling me that, if I wanted to, I could relocate to this hotel on 88th. I agreed to it and he even paid for my cab ride to... More

Pros: You won't find a cheaper hotel this close to everything No bedbugs, as far as I could tell Nice neighborhood that seemed safe A fridge in the room and a market nearby Cons: Pretty much everything else Right up front, if you can't deal with a dirty bathroom that you share with other people, don't stay here!

We enjoyed our stay at this small hotel that largely caters to students. It was quiet, safe, clean and the staff was very helpful in replying to requests, giving suggestions, etc. We felt very lucky to have found a such a good value ... we didn't spend our whole trip budget on accommodations. I liked having a small frig and... More

It's New York City, you never get what you pay for. Im 40 yr old female who took her 65 yr old mother. The room and bathroom was clean and, it's not like your hanging around in your room 24 hours a day. We left by 0900 and returned around 2000 give or take. I had a bed, shower, TV,... More

1) OK if you only want to sleep there. This is not Sheraton-Hyatt-Hilton ! 2) Parking reality: expect to pay $40/day. I couldn't find any legal street parking, for 3 days. 3) You'll get what you pay: room-suite (!) #2 reminded me being in in some old town quarter anywhere in Central America or Greece or France

If you are looking for plush, go to the Hilton. This is a inexpensive way to stay in New York. We had 2 small rooms, private bathroom in-between rooms. The view of the Hudson was beautiful, day and night. 3 blocks from subway, 2 blocks from H & H bagel and Zabars deli. Very quiet neighborhood. Hotel was quiet as... More
