When compared to other hostels like lodging in NYC, it had the basic amenities that most are missing.

e.g mini fridge, T.V, air conditioner and private bathroom.

I had a very late check in and the property was able to accommodate my arrival in a timely manner.

There are mentions of room being too small and poor noise damping but considering the price, i have no complaints.

Overall, it was clean, convenient and affordable in such an expensive city.

I'd recommend if you're a solo traveler looking for a price friendly crash pad.

This was great for what my friend and I needed traveling through NYC for a weekend - a place to sleep & bathe. It was clean, spacious, and the staff was very helpful! No parking attached, so be mindful if you are traveling with a car. Only a few blocks away from both commuter trains and subway stations.

The neighborhood itself isn't super well lit at night, so I would travel in pairs or groups when leaving the hotel in the evening hours.

If you plan to sleep, do not book a room at The Park Ave North. The doorbell kept ringing all night long because other residents couldn’t get in. The walls are so thin we could hear every other resident open and close their doors and we could hear every word of their conversations as clearly as if we were in the same room. Also, it is unsafe to walk from the subway station to the hotel after dark. You need to take a cab home in the evening. We booked 3 nights, left after the first one and our refund request was denied, along with our request to speak with the manager.

Clean and comfortable. Quiet enough for us - can hear people walking above, but that's same for just about any place, just come prepared with earplugs. An out of the way Inn. Very pleasant. We had a microwave and a small fridge. Some things to improve on but not a big deal - I don't like feather pillows, but I knew booking it that it couldn't be helped. I still slept well. Steep stairs are hard to carry large heavy luggage up and down, but they forewarn of this on their info. Bath towels are functional but thin.

I saw a lot of reviews saying the surrounding areas are super unsafe, but I did not find that to be the case. It has a sketchy vibe because it is clearly a less populated, less well-lit, and lower income area, but the people just minded their own business even though I was a single woman wandering the city even at night. The management was very responsive as well.

The area was only an issue for me because it was so far from center city New York. It's advertised on Expedia as 35 minute walk away but that's not the case it's like an hour away. There's no good dining and cocktail bar options within walking distance. My biggest issue was that the walls are paper thin. My neighbors were insanely starting at 10 pm all the way till 5 am in the morning so I barely slept. I tried banging on the wall to get them to stop and I complained to management but it only continued. This was the experience that made me never want to come back. The building is also very old so the creaking weird noises in the middle of the night. I would not recommend staying here if you have the money to spend unless you're willing to commute a lot, wear super strong ear plugs, and just need a place to sleep.

The hotel is definitely small, but I would never describe it as uncomfortable. The room was cozy, warm, clean, and safe. There is a train that passes by often which I found to be relaxing, but if that would be an issue you should be aware of it. Not much in hotel-amenities but a working fridge, microwave, and shower is all I need. Word of advice: Don't go to the BP gas station for snacks, go down the street to the bodega and have a much better time.

Heavy scent of pine in the halls and in my room, I mean lingering I didn’t like. I had room number 4 the bed to sit on the edges very, very hard forget laying in bed very uncomfortable for me. The noise, from the people walking over head, I can hear every time the front door was open and close, the train,cars motorcycles riding by.that was the first night. The second night was a bday party on the street the speaking playing music was outside my window. and I had to wait until it was over to rest. I ended up checking out at 3:30am I got tired of tossing and turning. I did report my concerns and the young lady understood and did what she could. She said,she spoke to the people throwing the party. I doubt it I would stay there again. It WAS convenient for what I had going on..

The rate, and the location with it’s proximity to the subway was great. The room was nice. I might stay again.
I arrived early and was aware that early check in may not be available. However, there’s no lounge or waiting area. I was given the option to wait/work in the laundry room in the basement. 😏.
There were leaks from the pipes in the ceiling by my bed (which was addressed the day after I made notification). However, I would’ve preferred being moved to a different room but wasn’t given the option. The nice receptionist just said “okay” to my complaint….After me standing there and staring at her she followed up with ….she would notify someone and they will reach out that day or next day, but was given extra towels for the leaks.
The mattress was too hard for my liking, however that may be due to my preference not the hotel’s problem.

Hard to find an affordable, good location in NYC, so this was great for that. The staff was really great. I had to call one night pretty late because I couldn’t get the front door open and the staff was accommodating and kind about it.
Beds are quite firm. If you can’t sleep on a firm bed, this place might be tough. Rooms were clean, bathroom and shower was great, room size was pretty good. Had to work from home in the room for a day and it was easy. Thin walls but not so bad.
Overall, you get what you pay for— it’s not highest luxury, but five stars for the cost, cleanliness, and staff. I’ll plan on staying again next time I’m in town!

When I arrived my room wasn't ready yet so I had to get ready for my day in the hotel basement/cleaning supply room which doubles as the waiting area. My room was right next to the front desk so the sense of privacy wasn't really there but luckily it was quiet at night. But the most concerning thing to me was that the chain lock (top lock) on the door to my room fell off and was useless. I told the front desk so hopefully they fixed that for the next guests cause unfortunately I didn't feel completely safe because of this. The staff on the second day was super kind though and let me take an umbrella (it was broken but it's the thought that counts) to go out into the rain and they held my stuff for me when I went to get breakfast so thank you to those staff! overall an airb&b might be better next time but it's okay for a quick visit
