"They are very small but worth it if you just need it for a night to stay. Very clean and convenient location. My only thing was that the bathrooms are made of frosted glass but you could see the silhouette of someone when they’re taking a shower. That’s not ideal when you’re traveling with family."

"Great room in terms of size and cleanliness and great service at the hotel. Our only criticism was the noise, being located so close to Times Square. Still a 5-star review for me, because we were aware of this when booking, but it is definitely noisier than expected for first-time travellers to New York"
