I've been to Broadway rooms before and LOVED everything about it. Right price, perfect location, friendly staff. This time, there were 2 guys that worked the morning shifts and they were both horrible. They both acted like the people staying there were a HUGE inconvienience to them. It's such a shame because everyone else that works there is so wonderful,... More

I'm still itching from the horrible stained bed sheets - I couldn't sleep for 4 nights. The bed was rock hard. The pillows stank, all poor quality and dirty linens. By far the worst experience I've ever had with accommodations. We ended up paying WAY TOO MUCH. The lack of care by the management was shocking.

You won't find another cheap Hotel or Hostel with such a great Location!! Times Square is just a 10 minutes walk away, and the next Subway station (Columbus Circle) is pretty close. The Staff is awesome, they are so helpful and really know what to do and where to find things in New York! The Building is quite old, but... More
