    The location was excellent and the bed was super comfy and also it was within the budget compared to other places within the city.

    They took too long to return the deposit amount. Still waiting for the refund 2 weeks after checking out.

  • Sofa bed should not be marketed as such. Utilitarian place.

    Very well located if you enjoy the quieter downtown /Fido area over the bustling midtown. The staff is friendly. The hotel is a bit utilitarian. Nothing fancy. Just the basics. I liked the water machine and the free coffee in the lobby. BUT We paid for a room with a King bed and a sofa bed. The sofa bed was an absolu…

  • Perfect location in Lower Manhattan

    8.0

    We needed one night between JFK and EWR so the location was ideal. It takes around 1 hour to each airport. The train station from which you can take a train to EWR is just a few minutes away. The USB converter was a nice surprise, as we had only one US charger. Very clean and comfortable beds.
