    My lower rating on value was simply because the rate was considerably higher this particular week than normal.

    I unfortunately didn't know about the breakfast or free wifi. But I was there for a VERY short stay and wasn't able to take advantage of that anyway. The staff was very thoughtful and accommodating, doing everything they could to get me into a room as early as possible, as I was exhausted having arrived into New York on an overnight flight. It would have been completely understandable if this didn't work out, but again they went out of their way doing what they could to help me. That was really appreciated!

    LEAVING A $200 SECURITY DEPOSIT THAT THEY DID NOT SAY WHEN IT WOULD BE PUT BACK ON THE CARD.

    THE LOCATION AND PRICE WERE FANTASTIC RIGHT BY SEVERAL SUBWAYS ITS REALLY IN CHINATOWN AND NOT IN SOHO BUT THAT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER. VERY WELL DONE AND NEEDED LEVEL OF ACCOMMODATION IN THE AREA. WISH THERE WERE MORE AFFORDABLE AND DECENT ACCOMMODATIONS.

    The room was extremely noisy with traffic outside. I accept the hotel is on a busy road but suggest they invest in noise suppression windows. The supplied ear plugs are not sufficient.

    Service pleasant

    The room is small and the building is old. But it was clean, and the bed was clean and comfortable. Location is excellent. I was alone in a standard queen room, so it was OK. I would not stay there with my husband - too small. If you need - pick a bit bigger room.

    It looks a bit old but not so bad. If you need to work in the room, there's no desk where you can comfortably do it (at least not in my room)

    Good location close to Chinatown, Soho, Little Italy and to Brooklyn Bridge. Room was quite spacious. Bed was OK. Bathroom was OK. Staff is willing to help. Subway station right at the door.

    In my opinion this is equivalent to a good Motel 6 elsewhere in the country. It does the trick and is practical but I just kept wishing I had a more comfortable room and more space. Bed was too soft for our liking. The blanket was very thin and polyester so I was cold but sweating at the same time. Street noise is also noticeable with earplugs. We also felt the subway passing below (we slept on the 4th floor). The room is very small for two people.

    Location is very practical with subways going North, East, West and South. Price is also good for NYC. Rooms have all needed things (soap, fridge, TV, blow drier). I liked that a code was used to access the room and hotel (no card that you can lose). Free coffee or tea in the lobby is a nice add-on.

    Online check-in process is unnecessarily cumbersome and has a few glitches. Problem could be resolved easily at the front desk but why make it so complicated in the first place.

    Fantastic location right on the edge of Soho. Great value for money. Room has decent size. It also has thick windows so noise from the street is barely perceptible.

    This hotel cannot provide an itemized receipt when booked through Booking.com. I was not able to have it reimbursed due to this issue. Business travelers beware.

    I liked the location and the style of the rooms. Right in SoHo and easy walk to shopping and other attractions. Canal street close by for those who are looking for that type of shopping.

    I won’t say I didn’t like this, but as others have said it can be quite loud due to the outside noise. My room was on the corner so I did hear all the horns beeping, cars driving by and at times the people. But the hotel did provide ear plugs and after a while I was able to just ignore the sounds.

    It’s a cute boutique style hotel. Very close to food , shopping and the train. I was able to hop on the train easily , walk to multiple coffee shops, and venture down the road to shop at the plethora of stores.

    The beds were way too soft. For someone suffering back problems like me, the bed was really bad on my back. The built in desk only had a stool to sit on with no back support.

    Rooms and hotel were really clean. Check in and check out were easy. Coffee and snacks were provided.

    I didn't like the wash sponges. Would bring a wash clothe if I stay in the future. The horns blowing was nust. But I am not from there so this may be an unfair comment.

    This is a hidden treasure. So very cute. The rooms are small but not too small...cozy actually. The staff at the front desk were so friendly and helpful. The traffic was crazy but I am not from there. I recommend this place.

    Stay was mixed bag. Right off the bat trip starts with checkin that takes forever. I book 3 days but for some reason system has me staying in 1 room 2 days and then switching mid-stay. which sucks. Luckily women behind counter was amazing and was able to fix it. she also helped me later when smoke alarm wouldn’t stop beeping. That was resolved only to happen again later in the week waking me up then there was a time when my room randomly changed codes out of no where. Stay wasn’t great but did really appreciate staff for being attentive and helping me as much as they could

    Amazing location right off Canal and super close to the 6 and NRW. Steps away from Chinatown and Soho
