The good: Had two bathrooms so you didn’t have to compete with other people staying there, Beds we’re adequate plus extra pillow. Cheap and right next to the subway (for those unfamiliar with NYC the subway is incredibly fast)
The bad: it’s the middle of winter and they never took out the air conditioner, it’s right off a busy street where the honking starts at around 6am and doesn’t let up, when the air conditioner is still in the window you hear everything. Also the heat was up to high, woke up in the middle of the night covered in sweat despite only using a sheet and had to run the air conditioner.
Also had a bad experience at the local bars, would recommend going to the bars in Manhattan if your going to drink.
