Could be a better stay with minimal upkeep
Room itself and bed was clean, the ac/heater unit smelled of burnt electronics which caused the whole room to smell as well, filter on unit was plugged with dust bunnies. Not much in the way of amenities, just your room (with only enough space to walk around it), if you want to do any food prep, there's nothing except a tiny microwave in the basement.

I needed a place to crash for the night while in NYC. It’s cheaper than the rest and just a walk away from the subway. Nothing fancy, just a bed and a bathroom. Would definitely book again

I had an extremely disappointing experience at this establishment and strongly urge others to avoid it. Upon checking in, it became immediately apparent that this location fails to meet even the most basic standards of hospitality, cleanliness, and customer service. First, the room was in unacceptable condition. The bed was not properly made, the pillows were visibly dirty, and the curtains were torn and marred with dirt and burn marks. The bathroom had an unpleasant odor, as if it had not been cleaned, and the blow dryer was non-functional. The refrigerator did not work, and the closet was unusable due to a broken armrest. Additionally, there were no hangers, iron, or ironing board available, which added to the overall inconvenience. These issues, combined with the apparent lack of attention to cleanliness and organization, suggest a serious lack of respect for guests. This is not just an oversight—it points to systemic negligence. I would not recommend this establishment under any circumstances. In fact, I strongly believe it warrants an investigation by the appropriate authorities, such as the Better Business Bureau, to address these glaring deficiencies. This location is in dire need of significant improvements or potential closure to prevent further dissatisfaction and inconvenience to future customers.

Where to begin... The hair on the towels, the giant booger on the wall, the 3 signs in every hall prohibiting prostitution, all the cigarette burns on the bedding and the plastic bag taped around the smoke detector... the hotel itself was pretty grimy. The mere mention of the neighborhood strikes fear into the hearts of New Yorkers, but I found it interesting and vibrant. It must be the only corner of the city left completely untouched by gentrification, which was a breath of fresh air TBH! Close to both the L and 3 trains, which is nice.
