I stay here often since my office is in the Times Square area, whenever I have a late night work event. It’s nearby, safe, clean and the beds are comfy. Plus you get a discount for drinks at a next door restaurant. My only issues: shower rarely gets hot enough in winter on upper floors, no ventilation in bathroom when shower is hot enough.

Wow-this was a fantastic stay. The location is perfect--right near Times Square but very quiet and the price cannot be beat for that area. The room was new and very clean and the front desk folks were very friendly. Do not forget to get your free drink ticket that can be used at anytime at the bar next door! The bar is super nice as well (it is good for a few domestic beers or house wine).

Good Find Near Broadway

Pleasantly surprised with this hotel. Check in was a breeze. Elevators are tiny, but there are three. Room was spacious for an NYC room - which I measure by can you walk along the foot of the bed with plenty of room. Bed was comfortable. Linens smelled really nice. I was worried about being cold in February but was not. Decent space for clothes to hang, suitcase, toiletries, and just my junk on the nightstand. Bathroom was not large but was enough. Shower head was weird - either this really hard spray or a delicate "rain" that I didn't feel rinsed the soap. Bath wash, shampoo AND conditioner, and lotion provided. Ice and water from a machine on the 2nd floor but nothing to put them in - bring your own receptacle. Perfect location for Broadway shows. I will stay here again. A diamond in the rough.

Highly recommended

Excellent overnight stay. The room was clean, with excellent environmental options. Excellent Coffee. Comfortable, and the in room soaps etc were very good quality. The staff helped me find a place to have a late night bite, even giving me a voucher for a complimentary glass of wine. Nice touch. Also, parking right next door. Highly reccomended!! And the price was very fair

Nice stay in a convenient location

The concierge was super nice and welcoming. The room seemed neat and clean. The bathroom tile seemed a little dirty in the cracks. The TV channels were weird- some of the channels listed on the guide didn’t exist? Overall- recommend it. Convenient for Broadway shows.
