Alright, honest review. There are definitely pros and cons of this place. The bed is extremely comfortable and the in-room AC unit is a lifesaver. Security locked doors helped as well. Had a great nights sleep. The location is also primo as its right in the heart of Hells Kitchen and only blocks away from Times Square.
However, the building itself is a dump.l and you have to traverse 3 full flights of stairs, so travel light.
You also share a shower/sink and a toilet (which are in separate rooms) with another guest. None of it felt particularly clean.
In the end, it’s a perfectly decent, affordable spot to stay for 1 night, especially if you’re in a pinch as I was.
