shared bathroom awful. 1 for each 8 rooms!!! crazy. Hotrl is in old, outdated building in which they only improved the rooms. Corridors are terrible looking and moldy smell.. Beds not great, very soft also. 1.20 m wide, not so nice if you order a doublebed.
location is good. subway around the corner.

Room was not clean, beds were full of other people's hair. Desk was sticky and dirty. Halls were a mess. Be advised: there is only a shared bathroom, i.e. one room with a toilet and showers that guests from an entire floor have to use. Room was pretty noisy.
The location. 2 mins walking to a metro that takes you to downtown Manhattan in 10 minutes.

The bathroom apart from the room was ok. A litle old but clean. Unfortunately we got a very small room with 5 People. 2 2person beds and a matras on the Floor. There was no space to walk in the room. Later we saw the other rooms in the hotel where much bigger. We were a little bit disapointed that the room was so little because we had paid a lot for a a whole week!
The hotel was very close to the metro and Central park. Nice restaurants and supermarkets close to the hotel.

The place was a bit 'dated' and dreary. I paid extra to have my own bathroom but it wasn't really worth the money. I couldn't sit on the toilet without hitting my knees off sink. Plus the building was loud. Lots of slamming doors all night.
Great location. Secure. Staff was very welcoming.
