Affordable, clean and comfortable, secure. Steep stairs that are a bit tough carrying a suitcase to third, fourth, or fifth floors. No elevator. Mattress quite soft. Sleeping couch for third member of family uncomfortable and short; fits a 5 ft 8 inch or less height person. Overall good option for cost in Manhattan.

NY gem

The staff were lovely. The location was amazing. The room was small but adequate. The sleep couch was lumpy but the queen bed was comfortable. I only wish that they had a true lobby where you could sit.

Small room with private bath--just fine for a one-night stay. Great location; room and bathroom were clean and in good condition. We had issues with the code for our door and, though we were attended immediately and the service person was lovely, it took a little bit to resolve because we were on the fifth floor and there's no elevator.

I enjoyed the location and charm of the hotel. The walls are paper-thin and our room off the lobby was a bit noisy...particularly on one night when the lobby TV was left playing. Woke me up at 2:30 and I had to unplug it from the wall because the remote control was not in sight.

The property is above a speakeasy. YOU WILL BE UP ALL NIGHT. The property manager brought me some earplugs. Very clean and quaint - but the noise is way too loud and much. Also, it is by a school and walls are thin.
