This room (yes, it's a room at the "Chelsea Inn") was both clean and quiet. It cannot be emphasized how rare that is in New York, especially at this price. The location in the heart of Chelsea was particularly convenient for my work, and would be for tourists as well. Yes, the room is small (but somehow slightly bigger than I expected from the photos), but you're not going to be spending much time there if you're visiting New York, and for two nights of my time here, we had three people, and we fit fine. My only critique is that the mattress was creaky, sunken, and a little uncomfortable, and after a week there, that annoyance built up.
