NOT book now, pay later property
Hotels.com claims this hotel is book now, pay later but I was charged immediately with no notification by the hotel. The property then said they do not offer pay later and said they couldn’t refund my money when I called, therefore we were stuck with this hotel. It was easy to find and clean, just be aware that this is not a book now, pay later hotel.

Great location and great views from my room. The terrace also has great views and if it was warmer I would have definitely stayed up there for longer!

Not set up to provide a good experience
This hotel is set up as a no-receptionist, all-electronic access property. The problem I encountered were several: the first email I received with my room and access code provided an access code but no room number. I assumed the updated email would arrive while I was in transit but it did not. By the time I arrived, I had to call the phone # provided to request my room number - but the call went straight to voicemail. I was called back within a few minutes, but this was not a seamless experience. The lobby area (small) led to a hallway with my room - which a maintenance person showed me. The room - small but workable for NY given the reasonable price ($250) was 92 degrees (yes, ninety two). I turned the AC on, went elsewhere for a 2-hr dinner, returned and the room as still 92 degrees. I texted the contact number and was told someone would be there in 10 minutes to fix things. A different maintenance person arrived and told me "the building is old so there is only Heat (winter) and AC (summer) so you need to turn it off and open the window." So I slept in a ground floor room with the window cracked (not ideal or completely safe). The bed was comfortable, the room was workable although the shower head was lousy (full pressure but uneven stream). I will not be staying here again - too much stress and attention to accommodations.

2/10 Poor

Rundown room and no staff on-site.
No staff for check-in. Have to scan card & ID online. Dirty old room and furniture. Shower wouldn't drain & water temps kept changing from scalding hot to cold. Rock hard bed with huge ruts in the old mattress. Won't stay here again. Not worth 1/3 of the price I paid.

Needs Improvement
Clear instructions for mobile check-in and building access, clean room and great location. It was, however, the slimmest, hardest and least comfortable mattress I've ever paid $200/night for. Update the beds to something better than an RV mattress and this place will get 5*.

Only if necessary
Noice inside and outside the hotel kept me up all night and the room was hot despite turning the ac down.

Alright stay for the price and location
The walls are very thin and you are at risk of being booked in a room attached to the lobby. Within the coffee machine was a used filter from a previous guest. No shampoo or conditioner available just a 3 in one.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel has a beautiful rooftop. It’s the most fully automated check-in hotel I’ve experienced—you’re required to register online before arrival to receive your entry code and stay details. While they do have front desk staff, they don’t seem to handle check-ins directly. If you arrive late without registering online, you may run into some issues since the front desk isn’t staffed 24/7. The rooms are small but come with a fridge and microwave, facing a view of the East Village. The TV isn’t able to stream, so it’s more of a classic “movie night” experience with limited options. However, the real highlight is the rooftop, where you can get a distant view of the Empire State Building. The flooring is made of old wooden planks—somewhat decayed, creaky underfoot, and adding a unique charm. That said, be cautious with kids; my child was playing with a toy car on the floor and accidentally got scratched by an exposed nail from the old wood, leaving a mark that lasted about a week. The first floor has 24-hour K-cup coffee available, and the hotel is close to iconic spots like Katz’s Deli and Russ & Daughters. But what I enjoyed the most was the rooftop—it adds a lot of value to the overall experience, making this a very cost-effective hotel choice.

2/10 Poor

This was a nightmare experience from check in to check out. I will never return. The receptionist was completely unhelpful and honestly we would have been way better off at a YMCA. The hotel was dirty, poorly lit, full of people screaming all through the night either at each other or on the phone. It felt dangerous because of their key pad system and I couldn’t believe that this hotel is able to stay open. I caution everyone not to stay here.
