The hotel itself is very cute, the rooms have a smart and efficient layout, and the staff is incredible!! Plus the rooms smell very clean!! BUT… mine and my coworker’s showers both flooded the floor from bad sealing, and the bed in my room was so hard and uncomfortable my back hurts today. But that could just be a me thing!

We loved our stay. The staff was excellent and the room was clean and just what we needed. We had an issue with the AC and I called the front desk and they immediately had someone come to resolve it, though the AC just overall wasn’t super strong. Thankfully it was not summer in full swing so it was manageable. The window was damaged probably from a previous guest but other than that the room was stylish and chic. They held our bags for us and we appreciated their service. The lobby was very small though so it did feel a little crowded at times. The location was awesome, close to lots of food, bars, shops, and conveniently located near the subway. Overall, a solid 4.5/5 stars! I would definitely come back. The price was challenging but that seems like the standard NYC hotel cost these days, unfortunately.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is very nice and simple, with everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The main downside was that the rooms aren’t very soundproof, so we could hear noise from other guests, but it didn’t impact our overall stay. The area and neighborhood are great, with plenty nearby and close access to the subway, which made getting around very easy. Overall, a great experience – we would definitely stay again. Reception staff were so lovely - can’t fault this place 10/10.
