Staff was very helpful. Continental breakfast included, closed promptly at 10am.
The property is old and the rooms are pretty small.. we were family of 4 and had 2 double beds and there wae no moving space at all. Had selected city view but there was not much you could see. Don’t know how the other no view rooms were so I would not care next time if there was a view and pay extra. I’d rather pay for bigger room than the view. There’s no fridge fyi. Staff was very helpful and were able to suggest if we should walk or take the uber or the train, that helped us a lot for our 2 day stay. Will likely pick this one again for the price.

If you’re trying to get out in the morning via the elevator, expect to wait a WHILE. With only two small elevators, they are not equipped to hall the amount of people they have staying at the hotel at any given time. Other than that, the hotel was relatively clean. Most of the ice machines were broken, but the ac worked fine.

Hotel is in an excellent location, don’t be put off by the facade! The building is tired but rooms were spotlessly clean and well appointed. There are 36 floors and 6 rooms on each floor. The most enormous bed and I have to say it’s the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in in a hotel. Big, bouncy pillows and immaculate bedding. Towels, flannels, bath mat were changed every day regardless of whether they’d been used. Dove shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, hand wash and body lotion is provided in big bottles. An ice bucket is provided with ice machines on a few floors. A coffee machine with pods is beside the bed. Alarm clock, hairdryer, tissues, iron and ironing board and a free to use safe are also in the room. There are only two lifts and we did have to wait a while at breakfast time but never at other times. In reception there are bottles of water, packets of crisps and fresh cookies in paper bags that you can help yourself to. Breakfast was like a cattle market, a tiny breakfast room with plastic chairs and tables and not a huge selection but it was very tasty. The reception staff were fairly helpful, however we arrived at midnight and they took a security deposit for each of the 3 identical room I had booked, different amounts, $225 to $165 but no reason why they were different. They couldn’t provide a receipt for these and when we checked out and I asked for them to be refunded to my card she said it wasn’t anything to do with the hotel. I’m praying I get it back!!

Pros: A place to rest your head after a long day. Cons: this hotel has many issues. The appliances are outdated. The breakfast is terrible nasty, dry pancakes, nasty eggs, hot juice with no ice. I went to the front desk and asked Mrs. Touria about ice for juice and she told me that i should go on the 35 floor for ice if i want ice in my juice. I had to be playing Plumber on the toilet that was keeping me up all night. Mr. Williams lacking customer service, I was talking to him and he had his black comb , combing his beard in front of the desk while talking to me. He had bad attitude and doesn’t give you a chance to explain my concerns. Mr. Ricardo was a breath of fresh air, very pleasant to talk to, always smiling and very professional. The elevator is very slow, bathroom dirty with brown dirty marks on wall. I will never come back to this hotel, the Hyatt hotel beside you all is where I’ll be staying going forward. This hotel doesn’t have any type of class, they are no competition for the other hotels around them. Not happy!!

This is a great find if you're coming to NYC for the first time, or are on a budget. It's right in the heart of Manhattan and all the subways. There's a warm, free breakfast for you to fill up before spending $$$$$ on other NYC meals. The room is simple, but clean. Heater was great.

This was the worst Holiday Inn I have ever stayed at. From the moment we checked in, the staff were impolite and unwelcoming. When we requested a room change, everything became disorganized and the situation was handled poorly. The air conditioning in our room did not work properly, and the hotel looked completely different in person compared to the photos online.
The building itself is very old and poorly maintained. During breakfast, if you arrive a bit late, there is hardly any food left. Even the elevator was often overcrowded, making the stay uncomfortable.
Overall, the experience did not meet expectations and was very disappointing.

There was a very squeaky door in room near by or above us that seemed to be used all night and day. So loud it woke me a couple of times. The bellman was very friendly and helpful. I felt misled when I asked for a King and it wasn’t a traditional sized king. When I enquired at the desk they just brushed it off like everyone should know that New York has smaller kings. I measured it, it’s smaller than a ‘hotel’ king. I’m 5’2 and my feet hung over the end! I personally would not recommend this location. It’s very dated, loud and breakfast was incredibly crowded and under stocked. It was as clean as an old building could get (except the red stains on our carpets)

I denied room cleaning, however, they were on point with replacing clean towels (at my request). We didn’t eat breakfast there, however, they kept a restock of water and lemonade in the lobby area as we navigated to and from the hotel. I definitely will stay there again!

Hotel is centrally located and was close to subway stops and Broadway. Breakfast was also good but seating was limited. Front desk offered water bottles and snack which were greatly appreciated after a long day of sightseeing.
Be cautious of the elevator they mean it when they say max of 6 occupants. Fire department had to come when one of the elevators got stuck due to too many occupants on board. Overall a pleasant stay.

I had a restful stay overall. The only downside was the breakfast - it wasn’t terrible, just not my favorite. But there are coffee shops close by

That said, I’d definitely recommend it to first-time visitors looking for a budget-friendly stay in NYC.

Overall, this hotel was just okay. The room felt very old and dated, and the bed had a deep hole on one side which made it uncomfortable to sleep on. The air conditioner worked well and kept the room at a good temperature, but it was extremely loud throughout the night.

The positives were that the water pressure was great and the hot water worked well. However, the elevators were very congested and often took a long time to use. The breakfast/food options were also not very good—I’ve stayed at other hotels with included breakfast that were much better.

Considering I still paid a good amount for the stay, I expected more. Even the coffee machine overfilled the small cups and made a mess. Overall, it wasn’t a terrible stay, but it definitely didn’t meet expectations and I wouldn’t choose to stay here again.

I recently stayed at a hotel in New York, and I had a generally good time. The room was spotless, super comfy, and right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore. The people I met when I checked in were friendly and helpful, which really set a great tone for my stay.

However, after I left, I found out I’d accidentally left my watch behind. I quickly messaged the hotel to let them know and see if they could track it down, but I haven’t heard back yet. I know things can get hectic, but I’d really appreciate an update on where it might be.

Besides this little hiccup, my stay was overall great. I hope the hotel can work on getting better about letting guests know about lost items—a quick reply would really help keep everyone happy.
