Pod 39

Very clean and bed bug -free. Great location! Very very very tiny room, no window, coffee not strong enough

Location was near a subway stop which was very convenient and is a walkable distance from Times Square and very good restaurants. If you are travelling by bus, the hotel is just a 20 minute walk from Port Authority. The rooms are small, but me and my partner did not mind because the bed was comfortable and clean. My partner does a bedbug check everytime we check into a hotel room, and thankfully our room passed! There is a rooftop bar at the top of the hotel which we were not able to go to, but I am sure other travellers will appreciate. The hotel offers free water, and in the mornings, coffee and tea. Some other people complained about noise control, and how they could hear everything, but our room on the 11th floor was not a problem. My partner and I loved our stay here, and for the price of this hotel we paid per night, we were very satisfied with our stay in New York City! I will add, however, that if you plan on staying in the hotel for a large portion of your day, then this isn't the place for you. My partner and I were out in the city for most of our day and just used our hotel room as a very comfortable place to sleep and shower. It would be nice to have complimentary items such as body lotion or shower caps, especially since the shower is a "waterfall" type shower head, so it is hard to avoid getting your hair wet. That is a very minute concern, however. My partner and I did wish that the fan on the AC could be adjusted because other you could have it on full blast or off. There was no way to adjust how strong the fan was.
