i showed up at this place to have a one night stand. i know, totally. but the room they gave for the price was horrifying. i complained and got a better room, but there were still roaches in the bathroom and the overall vibe is pretty disconcerting.

“Convenient, clean, good value”

Nice location, one block from Penn Station, in Koreatown, with 24 hour Korean restaurant next door. Clean, quiet. I had an inside room with essentially no view, felt slightly claustrophobic with drapes drawn, but acceptable. A/c a little weak: could get insufficiently cool. Overall, for its price range ($150 - 175 approx), good value and much, much better than other nearby ones (Hotel Penn, New Yorker). Would unhesitatingly recommend it.

“Basic but good”

We stayed at the Stanford for 3 nights at the beginning of July and found it more than adequate for what we needed. It is in a really central location, only a few minutes walk to the Empire State building. The room was comfortable if not a little old fashioned, but reasonably priced. Breakfast was not much to write home about though! As mentioned in other reviews, the lift is very slow so don't be in a hurry to get anywhere!!

“Great Place! Great Value”

I stayed at this hotel for three days with my girlfriend. What a find!!!! The location is superb, close to everything. The room was immaculate and renovated. Very cozy and clean... For the price. this hotel could not be better. The furnishings and the atmosphere of this hotel seems like a 240 dollar per night hotel. What a gem! If you are planning a trip to NY and don't want to pay excess of 300 dollars a night, please go to this hotel, and you will be happy, and spend the extra bucks going out.

“Rockin' Good Deal”

I just got back from my trip and I had to write a review of the Stanford. I wasn't expecting anything fabulous, because this hotel was only 139.00 bucks a night, but boy was I happily surprised!
Our room was small but very comfortable and clean. The bathroom was immaculate and the shower pressure was awesome. Our room was cleaned well every day and the maid staff was great. We had a bunch of channels on the t.v., a vcr, refrigerator, and great thermastat control in our room.
We had a zillion questions about New York and the front desk staff was helpful and friendly on every occasion. They even remembered us by name. This hotel has 24 hour desk service and 24 hour security which was very reassuring.
The hotel is super close to a subway stop and 2 blocks from the Empire State Building. There is a Walgreens, Bank, 24 hour deli, and Macy's within walking distance. Great location!
The only drawbacks were a small and slow elevator and the lack of a view from our room. Our windows faced out to the brick building beside the hotel.
If you're looking for a reasonably priced and clean, comfortable hotel choose the Stanford.
