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!!

This isn't for you if you have claustrophobia, but I LOVED it! Very efficient use of space, fantastic location, and checkin was super: They upgraded us from bunk beds to a queen (without asking) b/c one was available. I will go back! Very reasonably priced (considering this is NYC).

Cheap by Manhattan standards but the rooms are pretty mid & very small. Very large shower though! And honestly having to take 2 elevators to get to your room from outside is pretty annoying. The payoff is THE VIEW of Times Square if you're on one of the hotel's good sides.

The location is truly perfect, very walkable, the check in and check out processes are very smooth and easy. The staff is friendly and helpful at all times. Even though the rooms are quite small and tight, they have all you need! Would definitely recommend if you want to be near to the bus terminal, Times Square, broadway, and even Penn Station.

I love the pods. Any time I go to NYC it’s my go to stay. Who needs a huge hotel when you have the city to explore. I expect to be visiting many more times. Staff is great and the convenience of having a bar inside is always a perk. Don’t let the name “pod” discourage you.

Room was tiny, but well laid out, comfortable, and very clean. The Midtown location is excellent — 15 minute walk from Penn Station, 10 minutes to Times Square. All in all, The Pod has everything you need and nothing you don’t.

The location was perfect, just steps from Times Square and Hell's Kitchen. The room was small, as expected, but it had everything I needed and was clean. I loved the view of the city and will definitely be returning!

Small room but served our purpose! It was dark in the hallway, but the room was clean. Great option and location when you are there for the area and not the room itself.

My complaints: The rooftop terrace was closed the whole time, which was a little disappointing. The air vents needed some serious dusting, only one elevator working to enter and exit. They don't give you directions on how to work the bluetooth for headphones to connect to the TV stationed for each bed and only one remote worked. We were changing the channel on both TV's. Also the beds weren't the most comfy. What i liked: The staff was friendly. The shower water got really hot, which was amazing. The location is perfect for Times Square. Amazing price especially with the location. All and all If you're only doing a weekend it's perfect, if you were doing a long stay I would want something a little bit more comfortable. I would rate my experience a 7 out of 10
