I booked 2 rooms at JG Sohotel. Rooms are small but clean. The ofher disadvantages is that it is noisy, so get your earplugs ready. Lee and other staff members were very nice and polite with all of us but Andrew was the worse. When I came down the first morning to complain about the noise and to move to another room, Andrew was just arriving from outisde and said no, there is no other room. I said the gentleman who is at the desk right now is actually checking. But Andrew insisted. I do not understand why he was so rude, without the fact that he didn't have the computer to manage the rooms in front of him. Anyways since then, I had my first bad experience with him. When my fiancé were outside the hotel door, Andrew saw me telling my husband to come in, and I couldn't do it my self because my hands were full of stuff, he didn't even help him to open the door so he can get in. Also, the same day, at the breakfast lounge, Andrew came in and said there is a notice that we cannot use butter on the bread and put it on the bread, and immediately he ask one lady customer of the hotel accusing her of putting the bread to grill with butter. The lady from spain stayed composed and answer nicely that she didn't do it. He insisted and she reply again very nicely, that she didn't do it. Andrew was so rude to her, he didn't even apologize and he just left without a nice word to her or to all of us. At this point, Andrew is the worse and if I was the owner I would fire him right away.

The breakfast and lounge has nice decor. Free Breakfast is white toast, everything bagel, cream cheese, jam, yogurt, butter, coffee and OJ from 7-9am. Hotel keeps it clean and stocked during breakfast hours. It was perfect for our needs. My recommendation is to get the larger room with 2 double beds bc the room with 2 twin beds is very tight. There is about 1-inch between the two twin beds. Bathrooms are a bit outdated but everything works well. Small fridge and ear plugs available in room. It’s NYC there will be noise from outside but mainly from Loud cars and police sirens. Shampoo and bar soap available. Air conditioner and heater unit also works perfectly. We had to use both heat and AC in November. Location is great. Subway stop is right beside. Chinatown steps away. Great restaurants, bars, shops all walking distance. Front desk is also helpful and friendly. Filtered water available all the time.

The rooms are different from how they look in the pictures, they’re much smaller. In my experience, for example, the room had no light, the white sheets looked yellow, meaning they seemed dirty, and the bathroom had mold on the floor. On top of that, you can hear all the street noise day and night.

Great little boutique hotel in an amazing location. Very close to Chinatown and Little Italy. The subway is only a few blocks away. There's also a great coffee shop in the same building. The street is loud and chaotic and New York. It was a perfect place to stay for someone who wants to be emerged in the energy of New York City!

The hotel is in a great location. It was easy to get around town and there were a lot of nearby good places to eat or have coffee. It was also in walking distance to the The Public Theater and the Astor Place Theater. We also appreciated having breakfast available at the hotel.

Nice location, clean room. Room was facing the street so a bit of traffic noise outside. Breakfast was quite limited. Just plain bread and bagels with butter and cream cheese, orange juice and coffee and yogurt. Close to subway, stores and restaurants

Tiny, but comfortable and well located

This hotel is nothing fancy, but it provided all the necessities, including a very comfortable bed, a good shower, and a clean, neat room. It was in a wonderful location, only a half block from the Canal Street Station and at the intersection of SoHo, Little Italy, and Chinatown. The bedroom and bathroom are quite small, but if you’re planning to be out all day exploring, it’s perfectly fine. We found many wonderful coffee shops, restaurants, and stores nearby and it was pretty close to the Blue Note, where we saw a great jazz show. I would stay again.
