Very clean, super simple and had everything we needed. Door to bathroom didn’t want to stay closed. Water took a long time to get barely warm.

Room was nice & clean. Staff was very nice. A little shelf or cubby by the beds, especially the upper bunk, would have been helpful

Great. It was my second time booking Pod Times Square and used the Pod Pals deals! It’s always affordable if you know how to take advantage of dates and deals! Just a 9 minute walk to DD Dumplings in Times Square my favorite restaurant when in NYC! TS ofc is within range and depending on the room you can see the Hudson or Empire State Building (if I’m correct). I was able to always check my bags in, check in early and check out late is needed.

Very clean and such a chill vibe. The only thing I have to complain about (which is entirely my fault) was choosing a room with bunk beds. My body ain’t built for that climbing up and down a tiny ladder after walking 15,400 steps in one day lol. I would recommend! Very affordable too! I would say I’d stay here again, but I’ll probably never come back to New York 😂.
