We got a free upgrade , and all the staff were really helpful and delivered with a smile. They gave local info as well to help make our stay even better. Well done the pod 51 under really hard circumstances you looked after us I can’t say that for the hotel we then went on to in Miami.

We stayed at the lovely Pod 51 Hotel for ten nights. It was a holiday visit to the Big Apple. Having stayed at another Pod Hotel in NY previously, I booked this one without thinking twica. We toook a "Full Pod" room which has a double bed, a private en-suite batheroom and even a little writing desk for my laptop. The room is small, but has everything you need. With NYC prices, you cannot beat this deal!! The hotel is centrally located. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The room was spotlessly clean. The roof terrace was lovely, with great views, day and night. All in all, we have only good things to say. Great NYC Hotel!! Excellent Deal!!

My daughter had booked into this hotel near the UN. When her conference was cancelled she decided to make a holiday of the non-refundable trip. So I booked in as well. The room was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located. There were lots of good restaurants nearby, subway was easy to get to, and we felt at home and safe in the neighbourhood. The staff were friendly and helpful, and my room was cleaned very well. Finally, there was a $20 shuttle to the Airport - that was really convenient on Friday, as I left.

Just come back from a 4 night stay in pod 51 with my 8 year old daughter, after reading some reviews i was abit anxious. Well there was no need, staff were very friendly, check in quick, rooms are small but cosy, we had a double with private bathroom. Roof terrance was lovely with amazing veiws at night. Fresh sheets and towls daily was lovely. Hotel was clean, staff were friendly and very good with my little one and being on the 9th floor there was minimal noise. I very raley write reviews but i do when i think they are deserved. Thank you pod 51 we had a lovely time.

The room only had one power outlet that worked which was in the bathroom. The two small tvs and all other outlets did not work at all. Not only were we in the dark during our stay, but the front desk had promised multiple times that they would fix this. The issue was never resolved, and we were actually charged a late checkout fee even though we requested late checkout. The manger at the front desk was mad at us and told us that "there is no such thing as a late checkout" even though they advertise this. All in all, we paid more money that we were supposed to stay in a dark hotel with minimal service.

Are there any coin laundromats available nearby?
Sorry for the late reply - and I don't have an answer for you! I assume there probably is, but see if you can contact Pod 51 directly and ask them. Good luck!

Hey there! I'm wondering if you guys charge any kind of fee for amazon packages.
I doubt there is a charge for guest package deliveries at the hotel, but contact the concierge desk to ask directly -- concierge at podhotel51 . com

Not sure about the deposit. We booked it through a 3rd party site. But we checked in late around 3:00 pm. Just called them and let them know, no problems.

I'm not sure how many people share the bathrooms. Yet there are several on each floor. Other guests do a good job of not leaving a mess. I never had to wait to use one. Nor was I ever rushed by other guests.
