Small room, with no amenities. Lack of a small refrigerator, especially in the summertime is quite annoying. Also, the bed is ridiculous small and very, very unconfortable. The Wi-Fi is there just to justify they have something like that: the speed is very, very low. On the other hand, this is a clean place and the location is good for visiting NY. Recommend just for those satisfied with minimal confort.

Sharp edged furniture to bang into in a tiny, clean and functional room. Eerie, dim lit hallways. Convenient to theaters; E.g., we saw Hamilton a short walk away. No longer at discount rates; cost same as traditional hotels with regular size rooms in NYC.advertised room rate so called “Total” wasn’t even close to the total. Listed as Total USD $379; Excludes 14.75% TAX, USD $3.50 City Tax per room per day, USD $22.95 Resort Fee per room per day. True total came to $511.36.

I was a bit worried of the pod denomination when I arrived the Pod Times Square hotel, and the hotel corridors are a bit gloomy, but in the end I enjoyed the experience. The rooms were clean and modern, small but with still space for a small suitcase and a table to work from, and the location was very convenient. It's a good alternative to NY crazy expensive hotels.

Staff was friendly and efficient, even allowing me to check in early. Location was incredible, especially for the price point. I adored the chic but funky and modern vibe. The room was simple and clean. A little small, yes, but not cramped feeling at all! And did not feel like a hotel, but more like a studio apartment or even a really nice dorm room. Food and staff were good at the restaurant. Can't speak on the drinks but they looked good too.

Generally fine. Clean and very central to everything. It was noisy for sleeping but I think that a. I am used to be in a very quiet place and b. it was a very noisy traffic time (both Fashion and UN week! What a week to choose!) I didn’t try the offered walks (idiotically, I didn’t see them until too late). Lots of great restaurants, theatres, etc locally, to say nothing of being right at the centre hub for public transport! I was able to walk everywhere, except for Yankee Stadium! I’m told that it was more expensive due to the time that I was there. Well, I never expected NYC to be cheap! But overall, I had a great time and would come back.

good location, no hassle, simple set up, excellent value for money! Rooms are small but comfortable. Only real thing missing is a restaurant accommodation with the hotel. Would have been good to for example arrange for breakfast of some sort for an early leave.

Juan Carlos, Alden, and Vito really made us feel comfortable and at home at the hotel. Extremely polite, professional, and helpful. Only complaint is the beds were hard/stiff. Everything else was exceptional!!

This hotel has a very good location in the city, very central, it is close to bus and subway terminals and the price of the room is very good compared to other hotels in the area. The rooms are small but comfortable. It is a hotel to only sleep comfortably.
