Amazing Escape

The rooftop terrace was a highlight of my stay, with stunning views of the city skyline. It was the perfect spot to unwind with a book and a cup of coffee, all while soaking in the atmosphere of NYC. A must-visit for guests looking to relax after a day of exploring.

Really good Shower

The shower had impressive water pressure, making each wash feel invigorating. I looked forward to my morning routine, and the cleanliness of the bathroom only added to the freshness of each experience.

Inviting Lounge Space

The communal lounge area was wonderfully inviting, with cozy seating and a relaxed ambiance. I enjoyed spending part of my evening there, making new friends while sipping drinks and playing board games. It felt like a home away from home.

Charming Café Vibes

The café in the lobby became my go-to spot for breakfast. I loved the homemade pastries and the inviting atmosphere. It was the perfect way to kick off my day before heading out to explore the city.

United States, January 2025

8.4/10

I had a wonderful stay overall, thanks to the fabulous location and clean, comfortable facilities. The shared bathrooms were surprisingly well-maintained, which I appreciated. On the downside, there were no coffee machines in the rooms, and I faced some issues with the room's cleanliness that needed addressing. Overall, it was great for a budget-friendly option in the heart of the city!
