Disgusting- no bathroom- a shared dirty bathroom that anyone could have used their key to enter. this was horrifyling. no lights in the hallways, a bed and nothing else, and no room to walk in the room. the dirty bathroom was in the unlighted hallway that looked like you could be murdered without anyone knowing. stay away, i did not even stay the night after seeing the room, and they refused to give me my money back even tho I paid for it less then 5 minutes prior. Horrible customer service. Everything was a nightmare about this hotel. |

Very affordable in a very good location with Times square around the corner. Pleasant staff who let us check in although we were a bit early. The shared restroom at one time ran out of toilet paper, and the shower went out of order. |

It was a surprise as we didnt have a bathroom in our room, we had to share with everyone on the floor which i didnt like, but it was very central as it is located in the heart of times square and it is relitively inexpensive. |

The location is very nice, right near times square. very thin walls, you could hear the people in the next room. If the doors where'nt closed carefully, they made a lot of noise too. |

Absolutely perfect location, less than 50m to Times Square and yet in a perfectly quiet corner. The room we were staying in was so dead quiet one would never guess there are raging crowds just around the corner. The interior is somewhat oldish, rooms are tiny. One of the double beds in a double-double room is so close to the air conditioner that it might pose problems to those who decide to sleep near it. |

The hotel is very convenientely placed. Staff was very helpfull when wanting to check out early for airline reasons. The room was super small (big enough for the bed and not much else.) there was no window except in the bathroom. The window in our room was the entrance to the fire escape and it was covered by a metal gate for our protection, but not funtional for viewing. The room is good for people who are only there at night to sleep. Not someplace I would linger to relax. |

Did not get requested beds, requested 2 singles and got one double. 2 singles were available but only to an additional cost of >30% of price. |

Location and convenience to Time Square. Staff were always helpful and courteous - especially Robert who we feel went above and beyond to help us when needed. Rooms were small and decor was very plain but it was good value for the price and the rooms were clean and the beds very comfortable. It served the purpose! |

Location was absolutely great!! Next to times sqare. Comfortable beds, clean rooms and a nice warm shower. What more do you need from a hotel in NY? (you´re probably not going to spend much time in the room anyway...) Don´t expect the wifi or tv to work! |

The hotel was in the perfect location and the best value in times square. For the money you can't beat it and we got our own bathroom which is rare in Times Square budget hotels. The Hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful. |

the location-so close to Times Square and therefore right in the middle of all attractions (Battery Park, Central Park); if you're a walker it was great to be to walk to Soho/Little Italy/Chinatown/Wall St/Ground Zero/etc. and if you're not a walker hailing a cab/taking the subway is easily accessible. the price was also great considering the location of the hotel. we never knew what we were going to get in our room for towels. one day we got 2 towels, 2 face clothes, and a bath mat. the next day we got 3 towels and nothing else. In regards to to towels too-i would recommend that if we hang them to dry just leave them there and if they're in the bathtub then replace them. there may have been more washing of towels done than necessary. |

I loved how close Portland Square was to everything. One block from Times Square, one block from Rockefellar Plaza. EXCELLENT location, and great value for the money. For the most part, the place was clean, and comfortable, and I didn't feel unsafe for even one second. I found some hairs in the bathtub and the room was a bit frigid. |

I've stayed there before. Great location and good price. Bed was not the most comfortable but I did sleep well - - until the church bells next door peeled. The front desk staff was VERY friendly and the room service was excellent. And the free lockers in the back room are a very welcome convenience. Other than the matress, nothing at all. (As for comment on guest reviews, I don't know what the negative people wanted for the price.) |

Location is good and staff is very nice and helpful. It is clean and quiet. Wireless internet service is good. Room is small and corridor is narrow with lights not bright enough. Short stay preferable |
