New York Hoteller i Chinatown

I was looking for a hotel in NYC within walking distance of the Lower East Side, and found this. It was one of the cheapest hotels that met that criterion, at $250 per night (not including tax, which brought it up to $290). The room was sufficiently large to be comfortable to move around in, and the bed was firm (which I like). Everything was clean enough. There is free internet and it's fast enough to use it for work. The person who checked me in was friendly and had been nice on the phone when I called to say I'd be checking in late. The person who checked me out was fine, but less friendly. I can't criticize the staff, though - they were fine. There is nothing in the hotel to enjoy. No lobby to sit in (i.e., there's the front desk and maybe a chair or two, but that's it), no exercise room as far as I can tell, no restaurant, nothing. And no coffee served in the morning, so you can use the coffee machine in the room (which I never do - no fresh milk for coffee makes it unpalatable) or you can walk for a mile to get somewhere to get coffee. So if you get up early (as I did, coming from France I was on a different time schedule), it's really kind of disappointing and difficult. While it was clean, the price wasn't low enough for me to consider it again. I'd rather pay an extra $50 per night and have a better location and overall better hotel facilities. (I might even be willing to pay $100 more for that - it was really that unpleasant.)

Sentral beliggenhet og hyggelig personale. Rommet kunne gjerne vært litt større. Hadde også vært greitt med et kjøleskap. TV var uklart.

next to Chinatown and to places we wanted to visit the guy at the reception didn't seem too receptive....felt we were disturbing him when we had a question to ask him

I already knew the hotel. It's very well located (Lower East side, close to bars, clubs and music venues), clean and recently renovated, and well-priced with regards to other hotels in Manhattan. No remarks here because for that rate one really cannot expect a whole lot of luxury.

location is quite good since it is close to subway. the staff attitude particular the lady (I believe she may be the owner or the senior manager). One morning I met her in the restaurant for breakfast. She warned me I cannot use the paper for put bread in the microoven. In fact, there is no paper plate in the restaurant but it is not the main point. Main point is her manner. Then, she left the restaurant and turn off the light. Oh...my god. I am still in the restaurant and I am the customer. I do not know reason since it is my second time to meet this lady...

Cleaness ,wifi Noisy , no shower had to go to another room for shower

was really easy to find the bed was like sleeping on a plank of wood, the rooms were very small

The location

All of New York, nothing about the hotel! Everything I didn't like

Just position and price are good. clean in room and very very small

The location was nice. Easy access to Subway and walkable to China Town and Little Italy. The price was affordable for staying in Manhattan. The hotel provided towels, shampoo, travel tooth brush and tooth paste. The bathrooms are shared but generally we didmt have to wait long for an opening. Also they are spacious and cleaned daily. This is a decent place if you are traveling alone and just looking for a cheap please to sleep. The room was very small (6'x9'). The mattress springs were squeaky and uncomfortable. There sheets and comforter were stained. Only on of the outlets worked. The room had a small fan but NO WINDOW and very little room to move around as the double bed took up most of the space. All that said our biggest complaint was the noise. There is no sound insulation. We were in a room in the middle of the hallway and we could hear talking from adjacent rooms, all of the movement in the hallway, doors opening and closing and even street noise (sirens, large trucks). If you are a light sleeper this is definitely not the place for you.

Location Gross bathrooms with collapsing ceilings, loud and dumb neighbors, too bright to sleep, if the A/C goes out you'll basically suffocate.

Nothing at all. Single thin mattress on wood platform. Room in 6' wide with no ceiling, just chicken wire. Three common bathrooms per floor are disgusting. Rotting ceilings in number of areas. No elevator. Drug addicts and hookers walking round. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!'

What an unusual place! You walk up four long flights, get a bright and clean though windowless cell, find acceptable bathrooms down the hall, and wonder if it's a good idea. The room has tiny cabinet, light, plugs, mattress, sheets, blanket, pillow, trashcan. You were given soap and shower slippers. The floor is locked and your room is locked. Hardware screen for a ceiling to make the HVAC common to all 80 cells and it works well. A number of students with backpacks giving it a hostel feel, though the lower floors have the same design though much older and occupied by local Chinese. Apparently the design is a tenament style housing for single men. Very interesting. Unusual value for Manhattan. Safe. Don't go for the view.

Nothing no elevator On constructing For one sentence, This is not a HOTEL Backpackers is better than this

The bed was horribly uncomfortable, creaked everytime you moved. Staff, unfriendly n unhelpful Bad

i got to help out a friend in need. This place was just bad. Bed beds. Public washroom. No tv. No windows. Rude staff. Dirty. Do not book a room here unless it's your last choice and you're totally broke. I could have pocketed the cash and gotten better sleep in my car and cleaner with a packet of baby wipes. The staff was so rude I think they may have been on work release from jail. I didn't even want to shower it was so gross. I think the rest of the hotel guests may have been on meth they seemed content. For $100.00 bucks it was not money well spent. STAY AWAY.
