Excellent value - yes, you have to pay some fees at check in, but this was expected as it was mentioned on our booking. We arrived around 5 PM on a Friday and the check-in line was huge; after about an hour we were in our room. Line ups for the elevator were also often long. Otherwise, the room was great value for money, and we have no complaints whatsoever about cleanliness. The location was excellent, just steps from Times Square and very close to the subway. It’s not the most glamorous, but we certainly had no issues as described as others here and enjoyed our stay - for the quite affordable cost and location, it’s hard to beat.

3 days ago September 13th, 2021 I called the number 888-352-3650 that was advertised on TripAdvisor to make reservations for the end of September - a woman answered and sound like I woke her up, took for ever to do reservations for 2 rooms. When she was finally done, I asked for a confirmation number, she didn't have one. I gave her my email address to send it to but nothing came in. I called back after few hours to another number for the Row NYC hotel to verify, they didn't have any reservation on my name. I immediately had to cancel my CC!! and wait for a new one to arrive. I don't need to tell you how scary this was. So be careful with this hotel. I would like to hear back and really understand what happened. After reading the reviews I'm happy we are not going to stay their.…

This hotel was sold to us as a 4-stars hotel. It was FAR from it. The hotel was dark, no light in the lobby. It smell like sewage. The elevators were dark and old. The room was extremely small. The furniture all chipped. The bathroom was so small we could wash our hands while sitting on the toilette bowl. The walls needed paint. the window was so dirty. Only good advantage was location and the cleaning lady. She did an amazing job.But we will never stay there again,nor recommend this place if people are looking for a comfortable nice place to stay.

Rooms were very dirty and looks like they have not been cleaned. The first room we stayed in was very small. The bathroom had awful popcorn ceiling and had holes and stains on it. The tub fitter also had stains and felt unstable in some parts. After the first night, there was a leak coming from the bathroom ceiling that had yellow water coming from it. The wait to get into a different room took about 20-25 minutes at the Front Desk. The second room we were put in was a little nicer and had a better bathroom. But, there were mysterious stains on the walls and curtain - there were mysterious red “chunks” on the wall by the smoke alarm as well. Also, the elevator system is completely ridiculous. There are 8 elevator bays and 20+ floors with 60 rooms/floor. Only two or three elevators were working for the whole hotel and it would take about 25 minutes to get anywhere because all the elevators would already be full by the time it got to your specific guest floor and each lift only had about a 4-5 person space capacity. Also when we were changing rooms, we were initially given a key to the 14th floor. When we tried to get up to it, the system was saying “invalid floor selection”. When getting another set of new keys, I was told by the Front Desk agent that there is an ongoing issue with the elevators “not recognizing and ignoring the 14th floor”…

Having made a booking under the hotel's advertised 'free cancelation' offer for October we were disappointed to learn our flights have now been cancelled. I have spent the last week emailing the reservations team to request my booking be cancelled. All emails are ignored. I then contacted the hotel via facebook to ask who I should contact to get a reply. I was advised the reservations team would be in touch...however no reply has been received. I have sent a further two emails and again they have been ignored. Be very wary of the advertised 'free cancelation' as our experience is all requests to cancel will be ignored...
