A good budget hotel
Simple, clean. Great for budget travelers who are not spending much time in their hotel room. A clean place to shower and sleep. No frills but very decent.

Good Location & Clean & Comfy
This is a nice, safe place to stay near Port Authority Station. You are near Hell's Kitchen and other places like Times Square and Korean Town. The beds are small but comfy and the bathroom has a nice bigger shower. Everything is clean.

Great mother/daughter hotel!
This was the perfect NYC hotel. My 14 year old daughter and I were only in the room to sleep and didn’t need much. The bunk beds were fun and pretty comfortable. It had everything you need for the limited time we spent in the room. It was very clean. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you!!
