LOCATION!! The location is amazing for the price. Far enough away from crazy midtown, but close to everything you need and would want to do. Short walk from High Line! The restaurant downstairs is phenomenal and the market is pricey but really good. Staff were super nice and really helpful.

David, United States of America

The guy at the reception in the day time was awesome while the guy at night was pretty sullen. It is in the middle of Manhattan and you can walk to many places. Overall: recommended!

The staff that I spoke with during my stay were very friendly and warm. If you want to stay in the Chelsea neighborhood, this is a prime location off 8th Avenue and near the C/E line.

Charles, United States of America

The rooms are small, but the location is fantastic. There are cafes and shops just outside the front door. The front office staff were friendly & knowledgeable. The area has a village feel, always something going on, but not crazy like Midtown area.

FOR THE PRICE THIS PLACE IS A GEM!!! As soon as I walked in I was greeted with 2 smiling faces. It only got better from there. The room was clean and comfortable and QUIET! The rooftop area is a great addition. Great Restaurant in the area and near the Highline. Anyone coming from out of town that doesn't understand NYC and the cost of space there will think the rooms are too small. BUT for the price people.... don't leave a bad review. You get everything you need in there. I left my wallet in the cab when I arrived at the hotel (9:30 pm). I realized the hotel staff went into action and worked with me for 2 hours while serving drinks to patrons. Not only that one gave me money. THEY WERE INCREDIBLE!! I wish I had there names with me. They deserve a raise!

Joyce, United States of America

Front desk staff (male) was beyond friendly- asked for a change of room due to small size (made me feel closeta-phobic ) and room was changed within minutes. Now that's service, when we came down to lobby - was greeted and asked if room was better now!! I would stay here again and recommended to friends and family too. The Gem was a Gem!

Michele, United States of America

Bright & cheerful Great subway access Murray's Bagels across the street - wonderful whitefish salad Middle Eats (falafel joint) - on 23rd St at 7th Ave (2 blocks) High Line - a must see - 2 blocks

Mark, United States of America

We love Chelsea. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are super quiet and can be made very dark for sleeping late. There are tables and chairs up on the roof, and it's a great place to hang out. Overall, this is a very well kept facility. It is, indeed, a little gem.

William, United States of America

Staff was extremely accommodating, friendly and helpful. Very clean rooms. Nice decor. They gave us early check-in and stored our luggage after we checked out so that we could explore the city. We were a family of six adults with 13 bags!

Violet, United States of America

Room is not big but for me being alone it was fine.

Unable to walk around bed w/o other person moving out of the way. Towel rack was broken no place to hang towels.

눉Getting there from the airport using a shuttle service was a major mistake. After two hours, finally abandoned for the subway. Next time would have downloaded one of the free subway apps that help you figure out how to get around then follow those directions.
눇Great bang for the buck. Easy walking distance to the subway. Safer area of NYC. Plenty of places nearby eat. Also, we absolutely LOVED the rooftop patio. Lit at night, very safe and private, we could easily see the Empire from there!

“Good location with terrible rooms”
- • Business trip

- • Stayed 1 night

눉My room was not very nice, holes in curtains, everything was dated or looked broken, or about to fall a part. Sheets were stained, pillows were terrible and sheet quality was very poor. Also the clock in room was wrong- very minor, but had a big impact on my schedule. Also water smelled and tasted weird.
눇Location was prettty good. Some staff were nice and helpful and some weren't. The lobby is very small and isn't terrible looking, but it's definitely just an okay hotel.

눉The hotel is starting to show wear. I am sure that is because of high volume of use.
눇This is the third time I have stayed at the Gem. I was given the handicapped room, which allowed more room in the bathroom and sleeping area, a plus. Staff was friendly. It is very close to public transportation and good restaurants.

“Convenient Property, Bathroom Issues”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Queen Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The bathroom was not to be standards. After using the toilet, the flushing mechanism broke and there was no engineer on site to fix it. That meant the toilet ran all night long, making it difficult to sleep. While the front-desk staff was friendly, there was no effort to see what they could do to for me to "make it up" to me. And when using the shower, because I did not shut the door all the way, the steam set off the smoke detector in the room.
눇The staff that I spoke with during my stay were very friendly and warm. If you want to stay in the Chelsea neighborhood, this is a prime location off 8th Avenue and near the C/E line.
