Very clean and sparse. Absolutely fine for the price! Bed was comfortable, AC was powerful. Private bathroom was teensy but adequate. Body wash or a hair dryer would have been nice, but this is a budget place for sure. I’m would stay here again.
The place was really nice. The communal bathrooms were decently clean and the staff were wonderful. They were kind and held our bags for us after checkout.
The bedroom was quite comfortable. If you choose a shared bathroom room, the bathroom is impeccably clean. Staff was quite kind. Plenty to do within walking distance. Would stay here again!
The room was clean and staff were very responsive! It is in a great central location where you can get to multiple places in New York.

Liked: Staff & service
The room was small but adequate. Outdated electric outlet using a cheap extension cord to reach the night stand. Quite inconvenient for the price of the room. The staff were fantastic. The rooms were so small that people had to leave their luggage outside of room. Safe and secure though.

For single solo traveler it’s affordable, clean and it’s close to pretty much everything
Friendly service. We arrived late because of a delayed flight but the door person was helpful. Our room lock didnt work at first so eddy changed us to a different unit on a different floor.
I'd say The Flat was OK, a pretty good value for the price in NYC. The amenities were a bit run down; the carpets were a bit threadbare, the stairs leaned, and the toilet paper holder had been pulled out the wall. Rooms are small, but functional.
Good location, room was spotless and the staff are excellent. However, I would recommend taking earplugs, because the noise from the street can be loud.
I think they should be more honest that this is more like a hostel than a hotel. I was not prepared to share a bathroom, and did not notice when booking it cleary stating that you would need to share a bathroom.
