Very easy check in and front desk was able to hold my luggage until the room was ready, which was nice. Room was clean, pretty spacious for NY and a nice clean bathroom. It had a nice vibe and I could walk everywhere around Lower East Side, SoHo and Greenwich.

Great little hotel. Nice, clean and queen bed room is decent size. Comfortable beds and pillows. BUT 4 stars because they have a "virtual" check in process AND they can only hold your bags from 8AM-3PM. This was not mentioned anywhere on Expedia or their website. It was a total surprise after we paid a non-refundable rate through Expedia. Things worked out, with minimum stress, but I recommend having this information right front and center.

There was no functioning AC in our room, so it was very hot. The hotel refunded one of our two nights. Since there is no staff on premises, things like this can be problematic.

Fair Hotel but nothing special.

Overall this is a no-frills hotel. Relatively quiet. Room was OK but nothing special. Bed was about 18 inches off the ground. Bathroom was very generic.

Small and noisy

Stay away from the ground floor rooms as they are at street level by the lobby and very noisy. Generally small room that work ok for one… even the double rooms, but very tight if you are two.

First time stay in New York

The only weird thing is that they did not have wash cloths. When I inquired they gave us additional hand towels.

The room had a metal double bunk bed (with broken welds) with about 18 inches of room on one side. No desk, no chair but a small fridge and some shelving that looked like it was picked up off the curb somewhere. The bathroom is tiny but the shower was a good size. The shower was dirty and had some mold. The bathroom sink had a slow drain and the AC didn't work initially but saw the service person and he was able to fix both items quickly. We just had carry on luggage but there is no place to put it where it didn't get in the way. I put my knapsack on top of the shelf and it got coated in dust. I asked if we could check out early and get a refund but received no response. This is a place that maximizes profit over customer service. I recommend paying a further $100 per night to stay somewhere nicer (NYC is crazy expensive). Unfortunately, there is not much available in this area of the city which is why the hotel gets away with sub par conditions.

The website sais nothing about luggage storage so I tried calling the front desk and they didn’t answer. I Googled it and found Reddit said they did have storage, so I made plans for it. The night before my trip I got a text message from them that said no luggage storage, and a “virtual” front desk.. I remade my travel plans. When I arrived there was a man behind the front desk, paying atteto his twittering, and when I asked, he said there was luggage storage from 9:00am to 3:00pm. I told him this contradicted their message. He said, oh yeah, someone needs to fix that. The next morning the front desk was empty.

Jasmine was very helpful. Rooms are small but clean and efficient with great views. 1 block from the famous Katz deli, and a few blocks from the always fun saint marks place. Definitely check out the roof for great pictures and a cool hang out spot.
