You get what you pay for
The Gershwin was about a 3/10 on my scale. I have stayed at really nice and really terrible hotels and this one was definitely more on the terrible side. I checked in at 9:00 having and early flight to NYC. Upon arrival I was told I would be able to check in early to get some much needed rest. When I called a few hours later to try to check in they told me normal check in times. I then waited 30 minutes after check in time to get into my room. The room did not look anything like the pictures and smelled like straight bleach. The walls were paper thin which did not help the loud maids and construction that was going on all day. The shower had 2 tempatures, extremely hot and cold. I also had to get rid of a few roaches in the middle of the night. Not a place I would stay again. On the bright side the location was okay.

An inexpensive central location
Price and location were right for someone on the rounds of the city from morning till night, who only needed a room to sleep. Room was small but clean, sparse in furnishings. Bathroom very compact but hot water was plentiful. Small coffee shop off the funky lobby. Looks like some renovations were underway to expand lobby. Desk staff were young and sincerely friendly. Concierge was not functional despite his presence.

Money-saving tip:
Long walk from hotel
Attend MOMA on the free admission night, after 5:30. Don't be intimidated by the crowd, the line for free tickets moves rapidly once admitted

Don't know why people have given this hotel a bad review. Couldn't have been better, location was excellent , staff were very helpful , room was spacious and cleaned everyday. What more could you want. Would stay here again anytime. You don't go to newyork for a hotel you go to see a city, somewhere to put your head between the walking and that's what this place is. It's beautiful and quirky aswell. Very simple, want somewhere better. Pay more.

get away
I had a pleasant experience. The water in the shower was not consistent. Either very Hot or very Cold.... To check in before 3pm and the room ready, they charge an extra $30.00. Other than that it was a good experience.

Good deal for a short trip
Our overall visit with this hotel was great. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The valet is expensive but that was expected. There is a great cafe with reasonable prices located in the lobby that does room service. We had breakfast their both days and enjoyed it. We were walking distance from everything which made it easy to get around for our first time there. The only down fall was the furniture was old, made to look Art Deco like and the bed moved when you rolled over. The sound proof of the rooms wasn't all the good either. We weren't in the room much but if you wanted something more private this isn't the place. For our trip purposes it was a great stay and I would definitely stay there again.

Awesome Spot
Cool place, would come back and recommend. Checked in late, had to wait 5 or 10 mins for someone to check us in, wasn't very friendly, gave us internet password but didn't mention basic info like check out time. Can't complain though, very clean and cozy room, tiny but had private bathroom, big bed, and awesome view (window in bathroom could be opened.) Also had small table, two chairs and pretty large tv. Lobby, halls, etc were very nice, cool historic vibe with modern touch. Only stayed over night, but would definitely recommend and come back again.
