this place is not a hotel, motel or hostel. IT IS A HOMELESS SHELTER. I have stayed in all types of rooms in my life. I have been to high end hotels, cheap motels, travel hostels, and even shelters throughout the country. Some of the homeless shelters SMELL BETTER than this place. The front desk guy was a joke. He... More

You get what you pay for it. You stay in a box without windows. You have to wait to use the share stinky bathroom. I wonder why it is called a hotel. I did not enjoy the experience even with the low price.

I booked this place back in November of 2011 not knowing what I was in for. When you arrive you are greeted by rude, nasty front desk personnel. This place is a dump... It seems as if the 5th floor is used only for tourist, in and out guests, and the lower floors are rented out to NY residents. Let... More

Stayed here just one night on Christmas. It shouldn't have the name "hotel" as it looks more like a prison, a poultry farm or even a concentration camp. My floor consisted of a big room full of extremely tiny male rooms with no ceiling, like a beehive. It was too hot even to sleep. Funny smells everywhere. I don't know... More

Booked 6 nights - fled after one. They can keep my money - just to get out of the cat dropping rodent infested dump. NEVER stay here. I tried to save money and it was a STUPID decision on my part. I read the bad reviews and thought "no place can be that bad". It is. NYC is doing a... More

As you can see from the other review earlier, I also stayed here during New Years Eve. I already expected to walk up five flights of stairs to my room before I came here (no elevators). It was a minor inconvenience for me since I'm still a young guy, but the stairs are really steep just to let you all... More
