“Under construction no lobby they used a room as the front desk very cramped, room key stopped working a lot. Clean room nice for money.”

“The Howard Johnson Express on East Houston was like a dorm room, except perfectly clean. The location couldn't have been better for my purposes, close to subway and bus lines; in walking distance of Greenwich Village. The front desk staff was helpful and cheerful and refused a tip for leaving a suitcase after checkout for later pickup. I'd stay there again--at the same price.”

“After arriving in our room and unpacking we discovered the remote control to the TV was not fully functional. When I tried to call the front desk to get another one I discovered the phone did not work either. I walked down to get another remote and the one person working there that night offered me another room. I explained that I just needed a new remote. She explained that she did not have one but gave me a universal to her own TV and demonstrated how to program it. I took the remote back and after programming it I realized it was not the remote but the TV that was not working. (That explained why she offered me another room immediately instead of offering me the remote.) At this point I was too tired to watch TV anyway so I just went to sleep. The next morning when getting into the shower I found it was dirty around the inside of the tub. I should have taken the room she offered, I thought. She also new the phone line was down I found out while checking out the next morning. Overall it was a pretty poor experience.”

“Very uncomfortable. Also, when I politely asked the desk staff if there was anything they could do, the clerk responded "you can all spoon, and I can come watch." very inappropriate and made myself and my guests very uncomfortable. Would not stay at a Howard Johnson/express again.”

“I feel I am entitled to a refund. The room was dirty. The fire doors to the stairwells would not latch and were open. It made me feel unsafe. I have never stayed in a hotel where I was so uncomfortable.”

“The hotel was low maintenance and the room was small. However, as a business traveler it worked out for my needs this time.”

“I liked my stay at the Howard john sons because it was everything I expected. The room was clean, a decent size (by Manhattan standards) in an excellent location. I highly recommend it for everyone who wants a clean, modern room in Manhattan without paying a fortune.”

“Rooms smell like smoke, TVs didn't work, and there was a leak in the bathroom of my first room. The staff was helpful and friendly, but the hotel didn't have a very beautiful look to it.”

“Great value! The 1-star hotel was nicer than some 2 stars Ive stayed in. The room was very small and a bit stuffy/smelly, but once the AC was turned on it was ok. Overall, pretty clean and great customer service. I would stay there again.”

“Having only seen the lobby, elevator and one room, I'm not qualified to review the entire hotel. The staff members I met were personable, helpful and well-spoken. That the air-conditioning temp in the subterranean room was unalterable was only an inconvenience the first night; Nature having complied more than the hotel. The bathroom was immaculate, but the dislocated curtains, beyond my reach, remained, despite a daily tip, unprepared allowing unwelcome light and giving passersby an almost uninsured view into my room.”

“You get the most bangs for your buck at this hobo. Spacious (by NY city standards) rooms with a great view, a whirl pool bath tub, just blocks from the subway, a bus stop directly in front of hotel, friendly service, walking distance from little Italy - I'll definitely go again!”

“It was a great place for someone who wanted a budget room in a good location. There were some great places to eat and an artsy movie theater nearby or next door. It was easy to get on the subway from also. The hotel had TV and air conditioning that let us relax and sleep well.”
