Guest Reviews

• Hanne (8/5): Fine - Staff very friendly and minibar replenished daily with water and snacks
• Erica (9/5): Great value! - This hotel exceeded my expectation for the cost in midtown Manhattan. There is a lovely rooftop garden patio as well!
• Bryan (10/5): Location and quality of the room were exceptional - Location and access to the subway. Great restaurants in the area. Very few amenities but we knew that!
• David (5/5): Clean and quiet but at a price double what it should be. - Good location. Clean room. Was quiet. No proper lounge; no coffee- or tea-making facilities in room (available at entrance to hotel). No proper wardrobe closet. Main problem- at 462.00 USD for a Tuesday night, the hotel is double what I think is reasonable to pay. I would only return if the total with tax was about 250.00.
• Mathias (4/5): Come shortly before sleep and leave immediately when you are awake - Clean Small things such as no glass for rinsing mouth after toothpaste
• Teresa (9/5): Overall we had a very nice stay at this hotel and would book it again. - The staff were friendly, the property was clean. Great location for our needs. The shower was very small. Our door was slightly broken to where it was difficult to close and lock.
• Frances (1/5): Never again - Not much The room was small, dirty floor, cheap furniture and in the basement. Very noisy in the morning as the walls were paper thin. No coffee machine in the room. Just like a cheap and dirty roadside motel. Terrible.
• Christine (5/5): Accueil peu chaleureux et manque de convivialité de l’hôtel. - Pas de salon dans le hall. Pas d’ambiance Pas de prestation de petit déjeuner.

I wish I had gotten her name to give her a shout out. The view was not good on the lower floor, but we only needed a place to sleep and shower so a view was not important.

• Viviane Maria (9/5): Eu e minha filha gostamos muito! - Localização excelente! Estação de metrô (53 ST x Lexington) bem perto. Tem uma CVS na frente da estação do metrô, Shake Schak perto, Starbuks na esquina do hotel! Há 2 quadras há um Duane Reade e um Whole Foods! Cama ótima, queen. Quarto espaçoso e banheiro com box de vidro! Chocolate quente, chá e café sempre na recepção para os hóspedes. Eu e minha filha gostamos muito da estadia lá! Agradeço o bom atendimento do Marcos, da Lucimara e da Flavia, sempre contribuindo com dicas e respondendo dúvidas! Fomos a pé para 5th Ave, Trump Tower, Rockefeller Center, Central Park, catedral St Patrick. Também pegamos o Tram para Roosevelt Island, bem perto! Ficamos 6 noites. Em 2 noites ouvi barulho de caminhão de lixo e buzinas… Também acho o check in muito tarde, mas é o padrão em NYC. E foi possível entrar no quarto 1 hora antes, sem taxa.
• Paez (10/5): Super recomendado - La Ubicación es excelente para recorrer Nyc, cerca del metro y de atracciones populares. El servicio de la gente del hotel fue muy cálido y amable, siempre dispuestos a ayudarte. La limpieza es un espectáculo, todos los días te dejan la habitación impecable, te reponen el frigobar con refrigerios. La habitación espaciosa y muy cómoda, lo justo para alguien que se la pasa todo el día recorriendo la ciudad. Te dejan ingresar con comida al hotel o podes pedir delivery sin problemas. Además te dejan para prepararte café, té, chocolate caliente, de forma gratuita, las 24 hs. Casi no se escucha el ruido de la calle, se duerme perfecto. Colchón y almohadas muy buenas. Reponen las toallas todos los días. El personal te asesora muy bien y hablan varios idiomas (portugués, español). Volvería sin dudas. No es que no me gustó, solo es hacer una crítica constructiva... tal vez el frigobar no enfría lo suficiente, pero lo bueno es que siempre te dan hielo si pedis. Tal vez por observar algo... el espacio de la ducha es un poco pequeño.... pero nada, son observaciones mínimas. El hotel es un 9.5 puntos.
• Anne (10/5): Safe, clean and fantastic location in NYC - We loved this hotel! We've stayed in various accommodations in NYC, and this was the most pleasant one so far. The location was great, bed was comfortable, the room felt very clean. Water and snacks were included - major perk nowadays! Plus there is hot coffee/tea/cocoa in the lobby. The staff was super helpful. This hotel will hold your bags for you which is another great perk (free day of check-in, $2 per bag day of checkout). Our room had plenty of outlets. We felt very safe here and would definitely stay again! No negative feedback. Everything was great!

• Sandra (8/5): We were told it was small ahead of time, pleasantly surprised when we arrived that it was so modern. - It was a good location for us, parking was convenient next door, loved the available tea downstairs, staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms were a bit small, but certainly clean and lovely. Shower is on the small side.
• Matheus (7/5): Boa relação custo/benefício. Boa localização, instalações medianas. - Pontos positivos incluem: Boa localização. Próximo à Quinta Avenida, Central Park e estações de metrô. Bons restaurantes por perto. Bom custo/benefício. Café e chá à disposição no hall de entrada. Limpeza pontual, frigobar gratuito, e equipe no geral atenciosa. Quarto sem janela é um pouco claustrofóbico. Quarto bastante apertado. Com malas grandes, não sobra muito espaço para transitar pelo cômodo. Banheiro simples, com cortina de banho. Nem todos da equipe são igualmente atenciosos.

• Maria (9/5): Nice location, clean and nice hotel - The hotels is located in a nice location, only 15min walk to Central Park and shops/restaurants around the area. The staff was nice, they let me leave my bags before the check-in could be done. Room was correct, clean and big enough for 1 person. Overall, a nice stay! The internet service was not that good and wifi connection was a little slow, but not considered a dealbreaker for me!

• Amanda (10/5): - A localização do hotel em Midtown East é maravilhosa, próxima a uma grande estação de metrô (Lexington/53rd Av.) e com muitas opções de restaurantes e bares a pé, tanto em Midtown como no Upper East Side. A recepção e o check-in foram ótimos, e o hotel gentilmente guardou nossas bagagens por algumas horas, já que chegamos antes do horário de check-in. Há uma grande equipe de brasileiros e outros latinos no hotel, que são muito solícitos e dispostos a oferecer dicas sobre a cidade. O quarto é confortável, com bastante espaço para se organizar. A recepção fornece café, chá e chocolate quente como cortesia, e todos os conteúdos do seu frigobar estão incluídos na reserva (repostos diariamente). Gostei muito do hotel e certamente voltarei!
• Anthony (9/5): -
• Anna (8/5): -
• Fernando (10/5): Otimo custo benefício, atendimento bom, boas instalações e perto do metrô - No geral de tudo, chuveiro maravilhoso, quarto com espaço bom, o atendimento na recepção é bem bom, rápido e com clareza, sem falar que falam português o que já facilita, o cafezinho na recepção sempre quentinho também ajuda bastante no frio Não tem nada que eu não tenha gostado
