Good value with free parking

Room was clean and relatively quiet in a great location, short walking distance to a lot of major attractions in Manhattan. The free parking garage is awesome and accessible at all times, that's a huge advantage.

Good Housekeeping

The hotel is well situated and close to Times Square (short walk away). The room was very clean, comfortable and well equiped with microwave, fridge, ironing board and iron, Ice bucket. There was a good ice machine on the 3rd floor. Towels changed daily. Would recommend to anyone for a good clean hotel. Not particularly modern, but the Staff were friendly and efficient at all times. A very enjoyable stay at the Travel Inn. The hotel recommended the 'Theatre Row Diner' and this was very pleasant, good homecooked food and well run, also very reasonable prices. Well worth a try. Best wishes to all at the 'Travel Inn'. Thank you for a lovely stay in New York. The Richards Family(4)

Yes, it was relatively inexpensive, but...

It is a bare-bones experience with some small details missing (no hook on bathroom doors) and bigger accidents (leaking AC unit resulted in a huge wet spot on the carpet, which was not remedied by the staff)

quick trip to nyc

good location and decent for the price. other than the mattresses being more like a sheet of plywood it wasn't too bad. A good nights sleep would've made the trip much better.

Well what a week...

We had a fab week my husband and I in NYC and it was helped by using this hotel as our base, although we took our own kettle for hot drinks, it does have a microwave and full size fridge available. It is also just around the corner from Hells Kitchen area where we had various meals which were all good especially West Side Steakhouse. Room clean, tidy and comfortable.

Short walk to Times Square.

Room looked a little out of date, but it had a flatscreen, internet access cost $6, no biggie. Great thing was how it was such a short walk to times square, it takes less than 10 minutes to walk there. Free parking was nice, but be careful if you have a large vehicle because its kind of small. True Manhattan experience right out your window.

Right next door there is a deli, we ate breakfast there 2 days, for about $5 a person.
