  • The location was perfect for my needs.
  • I had the smallest room I have ever stayed in.

“I got what I paid for - a room with a bed, a bathroom and a TV. I had to search for an ice machine that worked. The small coffee maker provided had no carafe. I could barely open the doors or drawers to the "closet". The room was clean and the shower was hot and the TV worked.”

  • Location.
  • Jack hammers, dust, dirt, hot public spaces, door keys not working, etc.

“This hotel should not have been open to the public in the condition it was in.”

  • This is not a hotel.

“Worst best Western I've ever stayed. Better close up unless renovation.”

  • Location.
  • Shower, bugs in room, no cold water in bathroom.

“I don't think I can stay here again. The shower head was broken and wouldn't turn, so the entire bathroom floor would flood whenever I showered! No cold water in the bathroom - that's a first! I saw bugs in the room, crawling in and out of my luggage.”

  • Needs remodeling.

“The hotel staff was friendly. Everything was clean, but the hotel is getting tired and needs to be remodeled.”

“The room was dirty, and had a bad odor. The lobby was small and cramped with people's luggage.”

  • Nothing.
  • Old, smelled like mold, TINY rooms, no internet as promised, dirty.

“This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. I have traveled all over the world and have never been in a hotel that was so dirty and moldy. The room only had a double bed and even if you pushed the furniture against the wall you barely had enough room to move. Housekeeping is only a voice mail and they ignore your calls. The hotel promised wireless internet but we never had a connection and the front desk did not know why or care.”

  • Good location.
  • Very small room and the breakfast was not only bad but it was not free either.

“I liked the location but the room was the size of a closet and the air condition didn't work. I was also upset with the breakfast that they didn't include with the room it was $10 extra. I wouldn't have minded but there was no hot food served. Bagels with no toaster and donuts? Hardly worth the money, I would have rather gone out to eat for that price.”

  • On check out, able to leave luggage in a secure place until we flew out.
  • Poor internet service, not friendly.

“I might stay again because of the location in Times Square. It was very quick to everything. When we checked out, we could leave our luggage at the hotel until we were ready to fly out. The room was small and towels missing one day (had to call the desk).”

  • The location was very convenient.
  • Had to move rooms because no air, second room water leaked from air.

“The rooms are very small. The entire hotel needs to be updated.”

  • Friendly staff.
  • Loud bathroom fans.

“The bathroom fan was crazy loud and we could hear other people's fans in the middle of the night. I thought someone was doing construction outside of our room at 3 in the morning! The hotel staff was very friendly and very helpful. Rooms were kind of small, but were adequate. Room and bathroom were very clean. Awesome location in Times Square.”

  • Good location, good room.

“Hotel was nice. However, a coworker ignored him and found a room for me within second. Everything thereafter was nice.”

  • This hotel is centrally located to all theatre and attraction or catching the sightseeing bus. As a single traveler the location is perfect.
  • The room was very small, all it had was the bed, armoire with TV and the bathroom also was very small, showerhead needs adjusting.

“Overall, I would recommend this hotel.”

  • They accommodated our request for a one hour later check-out.
  • Room was hot (AC didn't work) and smelled funny.

“This hotel was about what I expected for 2 stars, maybe a little less. Dislikes: The room was hot and cramped, the A/C didn't work, and it smelled vaguely of urine. I asked the front desk twice for an extra pillow and after the second time someone brought me a blanket (?). Likes: Convenient Times Square location, allowed us to check out a little late, which worked great with our travel plans.”

  • The room was clean.
  • The room was the size of a closet and very noisy.

“The room, while clean, was the size of a large walk in closet. Every time a toilet flushed anywhere in proximity to the room our pipes made loud noises. Outside the window was a shocking view of the innards of the ventilation system. The bed was tiny and I got no sleep. To make matters worse, housekeeping banged on the door at 9:30 AM like she was mad at us for sleeping in.”
