Theater getaway.
Very basic clean room with private bath. Had to open window to regulate temperature since radiator was very warm. Great place to base for 4 days of broadway shows with my mom.

A great place to sleep
It was a great stay with helpful staff. If you’re just looking for a quite place to sleep in NYC to be ready to explore the city the next morning you won’t find better. The free breakfast was amazing and so was the location.

tThe biggest joy everyone is happy to see back
The big issue is the housekeeping, it is only done every 4 nights I had before the COVID and it was done on daily basis
Not a bad thing you always have clean towels and the take the garbage out every day
The best hotel so far have stayed there with my school students and friends more than 12 times
The only problem is that you can't send a parcel there, or envelope.
The breakfast is a joy and then good food is terrific
A 100% value, location is safe and convenient

Lovely Welcoming Hotel
Staff were absolutely amazing! Very friendly and couldn’t do enough for me! The hotel was conveniently located and I felt so welcome all the time. Room was basic, but everything I needed for a flying visit to New York! I’d absolutely stay here again and I know I’d be welcomed back. Thank you!

This is our first stay in NY so I can’t really compare against other hotels in this city. The hotel is in an old building and it hasn’t been renovated but this could be its charm? The room is clean, the bed on the small side but comfortable enough, the bed linen and towels clean and new. It is however quite noisy because of the old windows/airconditioner. The bathroom is also vintage but adequate. The WIFI although showing as available was not connecting at all over the 14 hours that we were there. The reception staff don’t know what a smile is.

Clean, comfortable, affordable
This isn't the fanciest of hotels, but I got a clean, comfortable room at a great price within walking distance of Penn Station and breakfast included. Front desk staff was kind and helpful and I would absolutely return the next time I visit NYC.

This is in a great location and the staff were great. Beds were comfortable and it was quieter than most hotels. Close to a lot of restaurants and about a 15 minute walk to MSG.

Great value particular the breakfast and ability to leave luggage at the hotel. You are literally a two minute walk to the subway. As a stopover for the night it was perfect.

Awesome budget hotel in Chelsea. One block to subway. 10 minute walk to Penn station. Easy subway to downtown.
Friendly staff and very clean room. Some rooms have shared bathrooms so double check your room type.

I've stayed here several times over the past 30 yrs. It's a reasonably-priced budget option. The rooms are small but clean. The location is excellent. It's a bit quirky (it's a religious guesthouse), but, that's a large part of its charm. It may not be to everyone's taste, but, it suits me just fine.
