Dark, small room. There is a window but it faced a wall and let no light in. Old tiling in the bathroom. Metal sink. The pod hotel in times square was much better.

6/10 Good

Pod 51 is in a good, safe location with easy access to restaurants, midtown, and transportation. The rooms are tiny (really tiny, you can barely move in the bathroom) and the night I stayed there was a large bag of empty bottles in the hallway. Whatever cleaner they use is so strongly scented I had to open both windows to get it out. But the staff is very friendly and helpful. Fine for a night or two.
