Good Location
Slightly dated but good value for money given the location right in Union Square. I honestly can’t give much of a review based on service as we were really only in the hotel to sleep.

Overall satisfied
The staff was friendly, and the room was clean and comfortable. However, the refrigerator was not very cold, and the shower water pressure was low. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay.

Needs an update, but otherwise excellent.
Location, service and cleanliness was excellent. However, the hotel needs major redecoration, especially the carpets. There is a stale, musty, old smell that was a bit off putting. Bur would stay again.

Good location
Good location near Union Square. Friendly staff. Neighborhood gets sketchy just a few blocks further away from the square, but around the hotel seems fine.
