Amazing location. Super friendly staff. Clean rooms and property. Great value with the breakfast added, especially. Only downside- rooms are dated and some are dark. My room had no window with natural light, but my friend’s room did. But also, who cares, you’re not in ny for the hotel room decor. I’d stay here over and over again.

Very close to Penn Station and MSG which was perfect for our trip. Older building with character. Clean and comfortable, certainly not fancy. Continental breakfast was rather limited, we didn't bother after day 1.

The location is great if you're looking for something close to Penn Station. It's a benny to have breakfast included. The breakfast selection was adequate. One thing we didn't like in the room was the fact there is no top sheet on the bed, just a duvet. The duvet is most likely not cleaned between guest stays. There's a thermostat in the room and when I told the front desk it wasn't controlling the room temp I was told there was a central control for all the rooms. Why would you put a thermostat in a room that doesn't control anything? Bizarre. Easy access to the subway.

older style smallish rooms but clean. Wifi wasn't strong all the time. one lift in the building, so if you were wanting to check out with all your luggage, you were waiting for 20 mins to get a space in the lift. VERY close to the train station, Bus with right outside the door or down the street. Restaurants around Koreatown were amazing. overall very pleased.

The hotel is in a great location near Maceys and there’s a subway station just outside the front door. Staff were hel-ful and friendly. Room was ok for a New York stay but only downside of the room was it was very hot even when the thermostat was turned down. Breakfast was doable but the only thing missing was a waffle machine like most New York hotels have.

We spent 3 nights and we had a good stay. The room was on floor 10. Room was clean and comfortable, it felt like an apartment. Personnel was very attentive and nice from the doorman, front desk, breakfast area... Breakfast didn’t have many options but it was a good head start to keep going without an empty stomach. Sometimes in the street you can choose a place to eat quick. Location was convenient, nearby restaurants, markets, and metro stations. Would stay here again and recommend to family and friends.

The location is very accessible to the Subway train station, restaurants, and other points of interest in Korean town. The check in and out was quick. The lobby staff were courteous. Housekeeping staff kept our room spotless and odorless. The room was spacious than I expected given the narrow hallways and a tiny elevator. The breakfast menu could be better with alternative options, as eating the same meal for breakfast for a week stay can be too redundant. Maybe oatmeal, boiled eggs, waffles or pancakes, bacon or spam on some days rather than the same scrambled eggs and canned Vienna sausage. Otherwise, the food servers did an excellent job in making sure food items were replenished promptly. The coffee/tea station in the lobby was nice but a water dispenser would be great. We would probably stay here again especially if they would consider the suggestions mentioned on this review.

The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom was nice. The entrance door was very thin, could easily break it, didn’t not go all the way to the floor, could see light coming in from the hallway. Front desk staff was not friendly at all unless it was the 2 men working, they would greet you as you walked past. The women would not acknowledge anyone at all. Even checking in they were very unfriendly. The doorman/security was nice and friendly. Overall I would not stay there again.

Pros-Rooms were clean. Staff were courteous. I would stay here again. Good location, good price.

Cons- The continental breakfast although free, it is almost non existent. Just eggs, toast, some basic fruits, cereal. Missing the potatoes, bacon, pancakes, waffles or pastries.

The other big con- the electrical plugs don’t work. Out of all the electrical plugs only the bathroom one worked properly. The others did not work or had poor wobbly connections.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Standord Hotel in New York. My room on the 9th floor was very spacious, more like a studio, with two queen beds, a large sofa, and a big bathroom. The location is excellent- just 2 minutes from the subway and right next to the Empire State Building.
Breakfast was very basic but included in the price. My stay was during a snowstorm, so the hotel was short-staffed. When my flight was cancelled and I asked about extending my stay, there was some confusion with pricing, and the rate offered was higher than online, so I decided to change hotels.
Overall, I had a great stay and would happily extend my stay with a better offer.

The hotel was centrally located with plenty of food options within walking distance. For the rate and size of rooms its pretty good. Keep in mind its a3 star hotel, with that said, its no luxury hotel. Continence breakfast limited options. Staff is good, very responsive when notified of any maintenance issue. Overall, i would definitely stay here again. Nice cozy bar on property as well as a restaurant.

The first room they put us in was the size of a closet. The air units outside were making so much noise that it was rattling the windows so we requested to have our rooms changed. The next rooms we got were much larger and the beds are relatively comfortable however don’t bother trying to take a shower it was lukewarm at best. One very small elevator with a very tiny stairwell. If you had to take the steps, most of the staff was pleasant however, there was a few that just could not understand any request. We asked one of the members of the staff for some additional washcloths and for the life of her, she could not figure out what we needed.

The hotel was tidy, and the staff was very nice. However, the water pressure in the shower is TERRIBLE! Taking a shower was almost impossible. Also, I visited in the winter, so the heaters were on, but it was unbearably hot at nights. I spent all night sweating due to how high the heaters were. And moving the thermostat was unfortunately not an option. Otherwise, this hotel was nice and in a relatively good area.

The rooms were clean and very nice, on the smaller side with no view (brick wall next door), but very clean and comfortable. The staff were courteous. This little hotel is nestled into Koreatown, with amazing restaurants all around. You can get discount coupons for many of them from the front desk. The hotel continental breakfast was nice, as was the Udon restaurant right next door to the hotel lobby that served delicious food and had great service. A subway stop entrance right on the corner made it easy to get just about anywhere. And, the price was right!
