The Allen Hotel is a decent place to stay. If you’re looking to travel on a a budget, I would recommend. Easy access to the subway and local spots.
Be watchful over the card you have on file though. The night auditor charged my card 3 separate times around 3:30a & I never got an explanation as to what these charges were. They did however refund me for the charges. Front desk said it was because they had a new guy, but three separate times is a bit much.
All-in-all, an okay place to stay.
