Clean, newish rooms. Great location. Good value for a no frills hotel - just a small lobby and small rooms, but comfortable and clean. If you need a desk in the room or a lobby to work from, this isn't the place.

Cons (-) I stayed for 6 noghts and my flight back home was only 9:40 pm. I asked 2 hours extra and they asked me a entire day charge. Ridiculously they asked me 100 dollars for 1 hour extra. I think it lacked a bit of kindness.

The restaurant next door was cozy and offered great food. It was a bit pricey. I w...

Pros (+) You get what you paid for. The whole staff was excellent. They were courteous, and very accommodating especially the Filipino guy who always helped us with our luggage and arranged for our transportation. The front desk was very helpful with information about NYC. The room was fairly small but I already expected that since it was clearly stated in their website. I don't mind staying in a small roo...
Cons (-) The first room we stayed in which was in 5th floor near the elevator needed an update. It was a bit dark but still ok.
