Yea, the rooms are small(er) and basically a place to sleep/rest ams shower BUT...absolutely perfect for that. The bed mattress and pillows were amonf the best I've ever experienced in a hotel, the towels were fluffy, and the room had the cutest mini-fridge (a huge bonus for an NYC hotel room) with complimentary Fuji water bottles in it. In the morning there a pretty decent selection of Danish and croissants and coffee and OJ to go in the lobby. Also we did not check-in until after 9PM when the front desk was closed but we were texted very clear and easy instructions to get in and self check in which took less than 2mins. This was our first time.staying here through many many years of overnight trips to NYC b/c our "usual" place was booked and now I think Little Charlie is gonna be our usual. Great place, great price.

We were only in town for one night, and the Little Charlie was perfect for us. It's a European-style hotel with small but spotlessly clean rooms and a very comfortable bed. The bathroom had the smallest sink I've ever seen! But the shower was hot and the bathroom was clean. The front desk staff was wonderful and stored our bags safely when we arrived before check-in time so we were able to attend an event without lugging our bags along. It took us no time at all to walk to the hotel from Grand Central Station. We will definitely stay here again!

It’s a great little hotel, the bed was comfy and we loved the location, staff was friendly, and there is a convenience store that stays open late right next door. I’d go back for sure.

I stayed at Little Charlie for one night and absolutely loved it! The room was very clean and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location is super convenient. I especially enjoyed the breakfast and the rooftop terrace – it was absolutely amazing! A big plus was the excellent communication: when I informed them that my flight was heavily delayed and I would arrive very late, they sent me detailed instructions on how to get to my room with no issues at all. I highly recommend this place!
