Room had nothing, what was advertised was not remotely similar to reality. The heater/AC connections exposed make the room unsafe, no explanation given; had to call maintenance bc the heater did not turned on and the reason was that the electrical connection tripped. Had to interrupt my stay as I felt uneasy and unsafe.

The hotel was rough around the edges. There were gnats in the bathroom and there was rust and missing paint around the AC unit about 6" all around. Dings and scratches all over the furniture. The towels smelled like gasoline. The bed was very comfortable though....it feels like a very classic midtown time square VERY USED hotel.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We were assigned to floor 15th our room was writing front of the elevator and next to us. We had the ice machine and water machine which did not work and he kept beeping all night, so I was really noisy- one of the curtains from our room had completely felt down during the night, which was super scary. And the following morning we requested maintenance to come and fix it which they did right away. So thank you for that. The building does have three elevators. Only Two of them were working but due to the fact that we were in the top floor floor 15 you will take us forever to get on the elevator so we would end up using the stairs which was really tiring. The front desk personnel could improve in terms of providing a welcoming environment. Overall day seemed very overworked and stressed most of the time which cost our overall stay, not feel so pleasant. The location is a big perk. You are right next to Times Square so it’s really easy to get around.

Decently priced hotel convenient to midtown/times square, broadway etc. Super easy access to multiple subway lines. I would definitely say it's a great value, however don't expect the room to be anything luxury, it's clean and comfortable enough, but it's a building with character. Windows are older and some street noise does come through, if you're sensitive to that you might want to consider noise.

Tried 3 different rooms hoping to find something close to the pictures. Room 1 - holes in the wall from a recent heater replacement left unpatched. Room 2 - no thermostat at all, just an empty casing where it once lived, a rickety window unit AC (in November) thats accordion wings rattled in the wind. In addition there was peeling paint falling down on the ceiling, dirty, chipped and dinged up walls, suspiciously stained desk chair (had to put a towel down) and very dated/damaged furniture. In the bathroom the ceiling vent was COVERED with a sweater worth of dust, the shower handle fell off when turning it on, the grout was either missing or moldy, and the toilet was stained. I stayed in room 2 because room 3 was across from a mechanical closet with a constant alarm going off, and no better state. I did attempt to abandon my reservation and move hotels but ultimately stayed put due to the hour and high prices for last minute booking. The rest of the hotel is about the same. The rugs through the hallways are stained/bleached/torn up. The elevators are small and VERY slow which gave guests time to commiserate over the state of their lodgings. Every ride I took someone brought up the poor state of their room unprompted by me. The pluses: the staff are warm and accommodating (it's not their fault, and they try!), the bed was clean and comfy, and the location is great. Just know you are getting what you paid for and go in with clear expectations. This is a place to sleep.

Stayed here from Oct 25th -27th, were supposed to stay until 28th but checked into another hotel for our last night. Air con in room couldnt turn off and was very noisy. Reported it and an engineer was to come look at it…. No one came. Elevators were out of order most of the time so we had to use stairs to 7th floor. Staff were not at all helpful when asked about things. Still waiting on my deposit back.
