“In Midtown Manhattan, this hotel emphasizes value without sacrificing location, near Grand Central and Bryant Park. Pod-style rooms are compact, though offset by a lively rooftop bar that draws guests with its city views. I think it's a smart choice for budget-conscious travelers who prioritize a social atmosphere and central base for exploring.”

Fantastic Stay with Great Amenities!!!
friendly staffrooftop loungenoise issue
I found the staff friendly and helpful. Early check-in was available, and the coffee lounge was a relaxing spot. I was impressed by the beautiful rooftop lounge and the quality of the linens provided. These features certainly enhanced my experience.
I experienced some noise issues during the night, with a ground shaking and loud sounds at certain intervals. I am not sure if it was related to the A/C, but it made it difficult to fall asleep. I hope this can be addressed .
