7.4/10

I had a really convenient stay in this hotel, conveniently located close to Times Square and public transportation. The room was small yet functional, perfect for a quick trip. The service was quick and efficient, although the added resort fee was a bit frustrating. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option in the heart of the city, this place could be for you, but don’t expect a lot of room to move around.

The bunk pod room was compact but filled with handy amenities like a charging station and a TV. It was clean and had a good view, but definitely felt cramped.

Dining

The hotel dining options were limited, but I found a great coffee shop a few blocks away that offered delicious options.

Facilities

7.0

The facility had modern touches and was kept clean, but amenities were minimal given the overall size of the hotel.
