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.

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.

Linda, Netherlands

“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.

“Convenient, comfortable hotel for the single traveler.”
- • Leisure trip

- • Queen Room
- • Stayed 3 nights

눉Room very small-not really suitable for two. Needed some touches to make it more liveable--bedside table, reading light, power outlet on both sides of bed. Hooks for towels in bathroom. Over sink shelf only about 3" deep.
눇Quiet, both in terms of outside noise and hotel sounds. Very comfy bed. Lobby happy hour pleasant. Staff very nice. Location is excellent. Near HighLine, Whitney Museum, Chelsea Market. Very convenient to transportation.

“Great Location”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Double Room
- • Stayed 4 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉I requested a kettle during my booking for my little (baby's milking/bottle process) but it was not available, instead they provided a very tiny coffee maker that does not boiled at 100C and less water capacity. On the following day after my checked-in and upon checking my bank statement online, I was surprised that an additional $50 was charged to my CC when this was not mentioned during my booking nor I was informed during my checked-in. When I called the front desk regarding the charges, she said that it was meant for the deposit and will be credited back to my CC after 5-7days after checkout (now I'm counting days), but how and where's the transparency? Lastly, the window curtains was detached at the last night of our stay which cause the 5am sunlight to penetrate our room and forcing us to wake-up earlier than planned. Over-all our stay in this hotel is satisfactory.
눇Hotel location is closed to subways, with nearby restaurants and main roads and easy to locate. I appreciate for the previlage given to us for the late check-out, atlhough this was offered to me by booking.com. The front desk staff are all friendly.
