Guest Reviews
- Sharon (10/5): Recomendado - Excelente servicio y atención. Habitación limpia
- Verified traveler (4/5): HE PRICE IS RIGHT - IF PRICE IS YOUR OBJECT, THIS PLACE IS PERFECT NO HOUSEKEEPING, LIMITED TELEVISION, NO PHONE, JUST THE BEAR NECESSITIES. GOOD LOCATION IN MIDTOWN
- Patricia (10/5): - Studio Plus has been a life saver for me! During the Pandemic I needed a place with all amenities and studio plus met my needs plus some! I was able to quarantine here in comfort. I highly recommend!
- Nancy (10/5): - It was bare basics, which is all I need really, but a few niceties could make it really special. Also, the picture is deceiving...my room was way tinier with no windows...
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The properties location was fantastic. Walking distance to many attractions and places of interest. Unfortunately it was the noisiest property I have ever stayed in. This studio was right next to steps that connected two buildings and whenever anyone used the steps it sounded like elephants stomping in the hallway. Studio plus staff didn’t seem to interested in finding alternate rooms given we were there for more than a week. It’s shame as location was great but ten nights with little sleep wasn’t pleasant
- Anna (4/5): - Liked the location. Windows to the skylight thus no natural light. Hope that towels were washed with some type of a detergent cause they didn't smell like it. Really hard to control the water temperature in the bath tub. There was a steep stair with a door at the top (after the elevator to the 4th floor) really hard to go down or climb up with luggage. Ventilation in the corridors very poor, it was like getting in the kitchen of a restaurant some days.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Property was ok for the money we paid Check in time 4 pm terrible time!! People fly from all over the world into New York at all times of the day and the last thing they want is having to pay to have their luggage stored while waiting to get a key to their room.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - it was cozy and perfect location to everything. only thing that wasnt good about this place was they control the heat for the whole building i couldnt turn it down or off when it was too hot in the room
- Vicky (6/5): - Excellent location very comfortable bed otherwise basic but functional for a city break.
- RYO.M (10/5): - 事前にお願いしていたバスタブ付きの部屋でしたし、部屋も清潔でした。一度、ルームクリーナーが入った時トラブルになりかけましたが、すぐに対応してくれました。場所が街中過ぎて騒音がすごかったですが、どこに行くにも便利な所だったのでよかったです。
- Verified traveler (4/5): - This property is more like a hostel than a hotel. A younger clientele, like the soccer team I saw checking in would probably like it fine. I however, being of an older woman, did not. I do not think a minimum of words for this review is appropriate, and NOT necessary.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The location was extremely walkable. However, I was not expecting an entire building of random sublets. I thought it was going to be of a B&B or hotel feel.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Un desastre,las fotos no se corresponden con el estado del apartamento pero,lo peor de todo es que nos robaron el libro electrónico de encima de la cama. No tengo palabras para decir lo que pensamos.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Me gusto la ubicacion, la limpieza no es muy buena, y no hay muchos servicios, pero esta muy bien para pasar unos 3 dias
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 위치, 실내 공간, 식기류, 에어컨, 욕실 전기, 냉장고. 최고. 편하게 잘 지내다 왔고 냄새도 없으며, 모든게 양호함. 후기들 보면 냄새나고, 엘리베이터 안되고 등 등 있는데, 지내는 동안 불편함 전혀 못는꼈네요.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - I liked the location, within walking distance of many things. It was very quiet considering that it was in the city. The air conditioner was great. There was a great wave in the city so it was a blessing whenever we returned to the room. Plenty of hot water too. I did not like the view from the room. It face a boring courtyard. Then again.what can one expectfrom a cheap price in the city?
- Noel (8/5): - DISLIKES: The Check-In time is late in the day. Couch and other things are very old.
- Jun (8/5): - 地下鉄の駅が近くてどこへ行くにも便利、キッチンの設備もよく揃えてあり、サービスに過不足なくとても満足しています。 周辺は繁華街で買い物や見て歩きに不自由ないが、外の騒音がかなり部屋まで聞こえてきて少々騒がしいです。また、ランドリー施設をホテルの従業員の人々が客と同時間帯に業務用に使用しているのが気になりました。英語が苦手でも、スタッフがこちらの要望を聞いてできるだけ解決してくれようとしてくれて嬉しかった。
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Très bien situé, très bruyant, mais bon marché. Accueil très moyen. Aucun effort de communication.
- Suleiman (8/5): - I enjoyed my stay - everything seemed to work very well.
- Alex (6/5): - Good but.. no parking. There was roaches.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Die Unterkunft hat eine tolle Lage . viele Atraktionen fußläufig erreichbar. 3 Metrostationen dicht bei. Gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Wir hatten ein Zimmer zum Innenhof dadurch sehr ruhig. Das Personal super freundlich und hilfsbereit.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Wow.. just stay away from this place. Not sure how they don't know about bleach... The bathroom was disgusting... Black mold everywhere. Centipede crawling around. Drain flies. No place to put your soap. Thankfully a shoe place next door so I could buy 5 dollar flip flops to wear as I showered. The floors were dirty. The doors were dirty. Just plain awful. The duvet cover smelled like body odor.. NOTHING like the pictures and your window looks into the center of the building.. a long drop down other peoples windows and a wall. If you get room 1006 run...
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The apartment was as advertised, clean and very spacious for NYC. We stayed for four days as a group of 5 for a bachelorette. Although it was in the heart of Midtown we didn’t find it too noisy in the evenings when trying to sleep. Check in was kind of a nightmare. Studio Plus is located in the back of building past another check in desk. There is no signage that says this. The staff at Studio Plus were nice enough but seemed unorganized and unprofessional. We arrived early, our room wasn’t ready, they instructed us to just leave our bags with them. There was no locked room or typical hotel check in. It was a small room that was being used as an office and we were very uncomfortable leaving our belongings. The gentlemen did not take our name or tag anything just simply left our bags sitting in this office with no guarantee they would be attended. Fortunately nothing was taken but it was a very uneasy feeling. Pros: Spacious Clean Location Accommodates 5 comfortably 2 showers Cons: Water takes a significant time to heat up in shower. Very low ceilings in the two upstairs bedrooms. Reception/check-in experience not great.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Better price than comps but cleanliness is very very disappointing.
- James (8/5): Ideal location - Location is perfect, but it's abit of a squeeze for 5.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - bien situé, très propre, il faut savoir que les early check in ne sont pas possible, ni de laisser les valises en consignes. L'ascenseur et les autres personnes dans la bâtisse sont bizarres, ça rend le tout étrange, mais une fois dans la chambre, c'est superbe! (PS: L'ascenseur est très petit, donc pas idéal pour les grosses valises ou les claustrophobes)
- Verified traveler (6/5): - This place was ok. We had to listen to pipes or something of the nature bang up against the building at night. Really annoying. We thought it might be water pipes to the building, but never really figured it out. We were trying to save a little money compared to the hotels in the area, but we will definitely stay at a hotel next time.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great stay as a whole - Great located, Studio plus provided us a clean studio. One really bad point : the noise of the heating almost all night long...
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Overall, it's a decent property. We didn't try using the kitchen, but it was in good condition. The biggest problem was only having one key for a room with multiple people, and we weren't allowed to leave the key at the front desk when leaving. If we were ever split up (which we were frequently) we had to arrange a meeting point to exchange the key.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Tv didn’t work. Easy to get to places. Maybe not charge for storing luggage.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - The most awful, filthy smelly place. Very false adevertising nothing like the pictures on this site! No hot water had to run the taps 40 mins first. Baking hot unable to adjust heating or open window as kept sliding down. Doors all bashed in with filthy scratched paint work. Garbage bins right across from apartment door. Not spacious as appears on images crammed in like a sardine! Very noisy. That awful i actually sat and cried and thought i was in a scene from boys in the hood. I was actually frightened of opening the door. I was out everyday before 8am and back last thing as i simply could not stand the smell heat or filth in that god forsaken place! Never ever again!
- Verified traveler (4/5): - We weren't allowed to get our room until exactly 4pm, the toilet handle kept falling off, the counters were taped together. Could not contact anyone because the only had certain hours and when you are travelling you aren't in the hotel at those hours. When checking out I waited in the office for about 5-8 ins before I got served because no one was there.
- Rosemary (8/5): - I liked that the furniture was not wood. I didn’t worry about bedbugs. Location was great for walking everywhere.. Never felt unsafe and I am 74 years old.
- Jessy (10/5): - Really enjoyed my stay here. The staff were exceptional. The room had everything we needed and more. A lot of little home appliances that way you could eat in and save money on food. The beds and blankets were really comfortable as well. Definitely recommend this place.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great Location - Location is great, room was great. We stayed in room #15 so cannot comment on any of the other rooms. Corner room which was spacious with large windows all around. The bathroom needs to be updated, it was okay but could have been cleaner. The bedding also didn’t smell clean to us, we all noticed it seemed to feel slightly damp as well. As this room is on a very busy corner, with single glazed windows, it can get very noisy, even at night. WiFi was good. TV didn’t work, no signal.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Very basic hotel - Well, you get what you pay for I guess. The room was clean and the hotel is in a great location, but the service was very low quality. A few reasons why I think the service wasn't good: 1. No real hotel lobby - there's an office that opens at 9am so if you need to speak to someone before then, you can't. 2. They make you pay $5 for each bag if you want to leave your luggage after checking out (if you have a later flight like we did). 3. Only one elevator worked.
- Gen (10/5): - This apartment is in a great location, close to the Empire State Building. They were very friendly and were happy to give us clean towels halfway through the week we stayed there. I’d definitely stay here again!
- Lisa (6/5): It works for short time - Upon arrival, we were concerned about what we'd gotten into. We drug our luggage from Penn Station, and walked into a scary, kind of yucky hallway, and the security guard pointed us to the office of Studio Plus. We were able to check in then, and our room was ready about 20 minutes later. It's very much bare bones! Each of us got 1 bath towel, 1 hand towel (no washcloth), and 1 pillow on the bed. The room air conditioner barely kept up. But, then, it was 90+ degrees when we were there. Refrigerator and freezer got much use, and only 1 burner of the stove worked. That was all we needed, though. Hallways are kinda creepy, as is the elevator. If you're only staying a day or 2, it works. I would not want to spend a week there, though!
- Robin (6/5): Average. - Very close to Penn Station, old but our small room had been re-furnished, and clean. No outlook, just into a vacant space.
- ryan (8/5): Review - Room was perfect for my trip, went with a friend, located in midtown close to a lot of great tourist attractions and price was right
- Scott (10/5): Studio Plus NYC - The room was adequate and had some kitchen use. The bathroom was private and larger than anticipated.
- Louise (10/5): Basic but you get what you pay for - Studio Plus is basic accommodation but that was all we needed as we were out all day. It would benefit from some redecoration but would probably then be more expensive! It is ideally situated for exploring New York. Staff are friendly and helpful. Loads of hanging space and power points (great when 4 of you want to charge gadgets). All in all we were very satisfied.
- Melissa (10/5): Great little place - We had a great stay at the apartments. They had everything as advertised. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was very handy to everything we needed. Would definitely stay again next time I’m in NY.
- Rebecca (10/5): Week stay - Perfect for staying in NCY for more than a few days. We could have breakfast and make lunches for our days out, saving money. It had everything you needed. Staff and security were present and friendly. It was very central and easy to walk most places. We have no complaints about our stay. And we would use them again when we return.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great place - We had a wonderful stay. It was a girls trip and we decided to stay at a lower priced hotel and this really can't be beat for the price! Clean room overlooking the empire state building and city! We will definitely stay here again next time we're in town. And it's very centrally located in a safe area.
- christopher (8/5): Chris’ review - Convenient. Helpful staff for most part.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - It's very smelly and noisy. The left takes forever if its working the only good thing is the location
- YeVonda (10/5): great find - We got off subway at Penn Station (Madison Square Garden) and walked 2 blocks to Studio Plus. Couldn't have been more convenient. Our room was equipped with everything we needed. I've already recommended to a coworker.
- Daniel (8/5): Decent place with a good location - The room was small, but it was plenty for what I needed. The point of a vacation is not to just stay in your room, right? The room was clean, the location was great, just 3 blocks to the nearest subway. The bathroom was small, but adequate. The elevators were slow, but they were in the middle of being renovated, so that may change. Room was quiet, internet was fast. Price was very reasonable. Would definitely stay here again, and would definitely recommend.
- Ginnie (8/5): walking distance to Time Square, - Friendly Staff. Clean room. Paid extra $60.00 for cleaning.
- Kevin (4/5): Disgusting dump. - A complete scam. Filthy. Hidden charge of $60 makes this even more a ripoff. I’m in hotels 10 nights a month and this is one of the worst of all time. You need to request hand towels or washcloths. My towels had holes in them. The shower was a trickle. Look anywhere in this place and nothing but filth. Inch deep dust. Only one decrepit elevator working. I walked in several times with no security. I have pictures to prove it. Avoid this place at all costs. It’s so completely disgusting.
- sfoudari (6/5): Hotel close to the time square - Decent place high price , no front desk, charging for everything, if you need to keep your luggage you have to pay for it , if you ship any thing to the address you are staying at you have to pay for it
- G (4/5): Not impressed - Room was much smaller than the pictures depicted it to be. I had emailed and requested hand towels and a wash cloth beforehand, but they were not there when we checked in. The office is only open business hours Mon-Sat. There is no phone in the room. The elevators in this old building are unpredictable and really slow. Also for having to pay a $60 non-refundable cash only cleaning deposit, I would think we wouldn't have to take our own garbage to the trash room.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Disappointing experience. - The hotel was in a great location, however the stay was not pleasant. I have used hotels.com many times and this has been the first time I had a negative experience. We arrived and they told us our room would be ready in 2 hours, so we left our luggage and came back about 2 and a half hours later. When we got back, we were told that the elevator was broken, so we needed to leave and come back in an hour. We were exhausted from traveling and had to leave for yet another hour just waiting. An hour later it was still not fixed and the employee reluctantly walked us all the way up to our room on the 11th floor. We had to take 11 flights of stairs carrying our luggage. We were there for 3 days, and the elevator was never fixed. Anytime we would come or go we had to walk up 11 flights of stairs. They were unable to accommodate us with anything on a lower floor, and were unapologetic about the situation. Although I understand these things happen, they did nothing to try to accommodate or make up for this inconvenience. The A/C in the room did not get below 75 degrees and was uncomfortable. The room was nothing as described and did not represent the photos shown on the site. It did not feel clean or sanitary. Overall, I was disappointed and uncomfortable with my stay here. They also charged us an additional $60 cleaning fee upfront but left a note in the room saying we were not to leave any trash in the room and needed to take it out ourselves. There were no trash cans.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Good location next to everything for tourism A little bit noisy all night cause the traffic. Good price in NewYork.
- Andac (4/5): Expensive place to stay - The location is good however it is not hotel. Just rooms. The elevator was not working. The smell will disturb you.
- David (6/5): StudioPlus Sept17 - The entry to the building and 'lobby' (janitor's closet / manager's office) was sub-standard. Elevators worked but slowly. The room was quite nice, updated and comfortable. Wifi worked well; TV partial. A reasonable compromise for the price.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Just a block from empire State. Excellent location but the rooms are small and price is high. Decent rooms.
- eddie (2/5): - Horrible experience as this is not a hotel, it's government elder compounds currently partially converted to lease options . Guests mix with elders, strangers, construction workers , and our 4 days stay was a horrible experience .
- jesse (6/5): - Great location and nice room. In an old building, hall way smelt terrible.
- Jay (4/5): Decent stay marred by somewhat deceptive marketing - Do not come to this facility expecting it to be a hotel. It's not - it's an apartment. The room is more spacious than the typical NYC hotel room, but the building is old, tired, and not particularly clean, with a rickety elevator and cigarette butts in the stairwells. A power strip was actually nailed to the wall beside the bed (isn't this a fire-code violation of some kind?), and the smoke detector in the hallway beeped all night, but when I informed the doorman that it needed a new battery, nothing was ever done about it. What really infuriated me, though, was the imposition of a $60 "cleaning fee" that you learn about only by clicking on a link buried deep into the web page. The woman in the office was extremely pleasant when I questioned this, but her claim that she'd asked Expedia to display the cleaning fee more prominently, and that Expedia had refused, doesn't hold any water, since I'd booked the room through hotels.com, not Expedia. And then, incredibly, after paying this fee, you find a sign in the room reminding you to "leave the room as you found it" and to "remove all trash before leaving." Well, if the guest is expected to clean the room, then why are we paying a cleaning fee? My stay was not terrible. It was a reasonably-priced room in a convenient location. I just wish the company would be more forthcoming in its marketing. You owe it to your customers to make clear that this is not a hotel, and to post the true price up front.
- Holly (6/5): - This hotel had fr
- Pamela (10/5): I would stay here again - Since this is not a chain hotel, I was a bit worried about what I would find when we unlocked the door, but everything was great! The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. I would stay here again as well as recommend it to anyone I know going to NYC and planning on staying in Manhattan.
- Brad (6/5): A Few Changes Would Really Improve This Experience - The space was good and the staff responsive except that the shower drained incredibly slow, the water was not hot two of the days I was there and the shower was so "low flow" that it was literally hard to get your hair wet.
- Mads (8/5): Great location - Very good location!
- Romeel (6/5): Decent no-frills option - This is a studio apartment in a no-frills complex. It is well equipped, but certainly nothing fancy. The ambiance is poor (e.g. halls are smelly) but the apartment itself is fine if small and a bit run-down.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Good location and inexpensive but bad night sleep - Pros: Cheap, Good location, excellent wifi, clean Cons: Walls paper thin, Bad nights sleep due to noise, Next door had very loud party until 3am, No cable TV, a little dated decor
- Geoff (8/5): Convenient but a bit noisy - Short walk to Times Square, the High Line Park and Penn Station. Noisy overnight (due to building works in the early hours, as well as normal street noise). We had to ask for chairs in our small room! Staff were very helpful and responded to requests in a short period. Two subway stations are nearby, so all of NYC is easily reached.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Christmas in NYC - great location, was able to check-in early but not sure a great cleaning job was done prior. it was clear from all of the hair in the shower that the bathroom wasn't cleaned well, or at all. had some problems with the toilet continuing to run after flushing and there was construction going on to the building which made for a lot of noise throughout the day. the room was also a little chilly but there were heaters in the closet that warmed the room up pretty quickly. overall the room was nice and the beds were comfortable.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Will consider staying here again the next time I will be in NYC!!!
- Verified traveler (6/5): Clean, comfortable, close - What the room lacked in amenities, it made up for in price and location. Walkable to time square and Macy's. If you are prepared with own facecloth, conditioner, coffee etc you will enjoy your stay! It's clean and beds comfortable. Basic but all you need to enjoy down town NYC
- Verified traveler (8/5): For the price the room was a great value. - The location is excellent. The room is very basic but has everything you need. The staff is polite and friendly.
- Serkan (2/5): Never EVER again - Unfortunately customer satisfaction is not this hotel managements forte. I arrived at the property around 7:30am, but the office didn't open until 10am. Luckily the building manager was available to store my bags for me, otherwise I would have had to carry them all over New York. Check in is 4pm, which is very late for any standard of accommodation. Once I was able to check in, they asked for me to pay a cleaning fee. I wouldn't have minded this if the apartment is was actually clean when I finally got into my room. Also, there was no tea, coffee, not even a small starter pack. The sponge that was on the sink was used and in desperate need of replacement. The shampoo that was provided was used and basically finished, no body wash or conditioner as provided. The fridge, while small in size, made you feel like you were sleeping next to a small aircraft at night. The water pressure in the shower was no existent, with the water just trickling out of the tap. Also the tiles in the bathroom were loose and dangerous to walk on. I reported this to the management team, and they sent someone the following day very early in the morning and woke me up.
- Ee Fu (6/5): Lift too slow - Satisfied overall of my stay at studio plus! Very convenient around the area
