They are posing as the Time Hotel by Hyatt nearby. We booked the Expedia expecting to be with the rest of our family at The Time, but were rudely surprised when we arrived. Air conditioner leaked water onto our heads as we tried to sleep. Had to carry our bags up to flights of narrow stairs. Dangerous for us seniors. We would have left immediately to go to The Time, but they were fully booked. We switched to The Time by Hyatt, a block away, the next day. This "business" is only a month old and they have been pirating The Time by Hyatt's clients. There is only one letter difference in their listings on Expedia. This doesn't seem legal or ethical. This place should be avoided, especially by seniors or anyone with a disability.

The location can’t be beaten. The exterior looks run down. We did feel safe though with the locking front door. The TV’s were not working during our visit. This is a minimalist concept. The bed, though comfortable was crammed against 3 walls so my husband had to crawl over me to get in and out of the bed. The window curtain was not a black out so we had the neon lights from the businesses below creep in all night. There are no nightstands or lighting other than the overhead light. There is a small drop down desk that was mounted too low. There was one small chair. The bathroom was modern but, since the shower had no threshold, the floor, including the cloth bath mat, got wet. So you tracked water from the bathroom across the rug less main room. Although the ceiling level hvac worked well at cooling, there was no way to turn down the fan. It blasted air nonstop whether you wanted it or not. I would choose not to stay there again unless I couldn’t find something cheaper. This room was their “deluxe” at over $400 a night.

The room was small but nice. I’m just pretty sure they didn’t change the sheets from the last person who stayed there because there were stains on the comforter and sheets. And they’re white so it’s hard not to notice. Also when I got up from laying down, there was a blonde hair on my head, and I have black hair. The staff was very polite and helpful. It was literally one block away from Time Square and a lot of public transportation around, so that was very convenient. Heads up there is no elevator so if you’re on the 5th floor, you will be climbing a lot of steps; Like steep, long steps. I didn’t necessarily feel safe, as I was a woman traveling alone, the street is very dark compared to time square, and there were men loitering right outside the hotel. The outside is also not aesthetically pleasing and you truly wouldn’t know it’s a hotel from the outside. I did appreciate that the front door was locked and you had to ring the doorbell to enter the hotel. Overall my stay with them was good besides the sheets and loitering men outside.

There was no TV service for the entire stay, and the lights over our bed never worked. When I checked out and reported this and asked them to hold our bags, they charged us extra to hold our bags for the day. Small rooms, but very clean

There was no visible notation that the property did not have an elevator on the advertisement. Very difficult to find with no markings or signs above the front door. TV was not working for anyone and front desk said call who you booked with for a discount. Property was still not finished with active painting in progress with wet paint signs. The bathroom was really small, toilet inside the shower. No fire exits other than one down the hall and only one door on the room. The last day there another person with complaints of similar issues. Do not recommend this hotel.

I would at best call first they are having a hard

First they get you for a 100 deposit that will take some arbitrary amount of time to be returned to you. Then there are NO Elevators, none. Then NO TV'S. Worst of all you are not allowed to adjust the tempature in the room so we had to open the window which looked into an alley cave.

It was a great location for seeing a show on 46th but I had my husband and son with me and we ended up leaving at 1am to drive back to Philadelphia. The rooms are small which is fine but the walls are thin. The neighbor next to us was talking loudly for HOURS and we couldn't sleep a wink. The cable was out as well so we couldn't even use the TV to drown out the noise. I also called the front desk but it wasn't even the neighbors fault that we could hear his entire conversation. It was the worst hotel sleeping experience that we knew we had to leave for our sanity. Packed my 7-year-old up and left in the middle of the night.

This hotel is conveniently located close to everything. I was expecting it to be a dump, but it turned out to be cute and quaint. The downside is that there are no elevators, so you’ll need to carry your luggage upstairs (though someone was there to help me). The TV in my room didn’t work, and the room was quite small, but overall it was a nice stay.
