THIS PLACE IS A DUMP WITH A GOOD RATE. THE PRICE IS NOT WORTH WHAT YOU GET BY NO MEANS. THE ONLY THING THAT WAS NICE WAS ONE OF THE NIGHT LADIES AND THAT WAS ALL. THE MANAGER WAS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND VERY UNREASONABLE. WHEN WE ARRIVED WE FOUND OUT THAT OUR SUITE HAD BEEN GIVEN AWAY TO ANOTHER PARTY WHO HAD MORE PEOPLE IN THEIR GROUP. THE ...
This hotel had an amazing location at 80th and Riverside, just seconds away from the red-line subway train that goes all over New York. Very close to H&H Bagels, a necessity since this hotel offers no food service whatsoever (not even a vending machine). For those of you who say "well that doesn't sound too bad," think again! The ...

Being located 2 blocks from Broadway and 79th Street stop of the RED line trains of the subway made this hotel a nice find in the upper west side.
The room is quaint, but if you are wanting a bed, shower, and basic TV it is a NYC deal.

OK but ....

The rooms are small, which is fine. The place is really close to the subway, less than 5 minute walk, and that's great. I just had a problem with the staff. They have a habit of going into your room and moving things around without notification, which is creepy to me, and when I made an issue out of it, they looked at me like I was crazy.

I would have spent more for a better place to stay
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/05/05
The location is great. Lots of great restaurants and subway are nearby. Another nice thing about this hotel is 2 black girls at front desk. Both of them are so nice, so friendly and helpful. But the guy (I guess the owner) answers the phone and handles reservations is not very pleasant to deal with. The room is so old, small and dirty. Sheets are ...

Stay away !!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/11/05
What we liked: the description on the internet........... The location is great: safe streets, near busstop, near groceries, nice and helpful staff What we hated: stained carpet, smelly room, hundreds of cockroaches (up to finger-size !!!) You get what you pay for ? We ended up paying 129$ per night instead of 109$(tax and occupancy (????)). We ...
The staff was helpful but the rooms were small. No cable tv and no local phone. To use the phone costs more than a pay phone. The location is good and the price is good, but remember you get what you pay for. No tub and only one sink and it isn't even in the bathroom. Paint is peeling off the wall and there is mold and mildew in the ...

Terrible!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/24/05
You get what you pay for- the room is cheap and the hotel is in a good location, but the room was disgusting. We've stayed in economy-style hotels in Europe before, and didn't mind them- all we ask for is that it's clean. This room smelled of Raid (the bug spray- maybe a good thing?!?), and was very dirty/dingey. I won't tell ...

pluses & minuses
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/22/05
Like: Location is awesome, Riverside Park adjacent, safe and beautiful neighborhood, subway adjacent, restaurants & bars 2 blocks away... Dislike: Staff was unhelpful, and unaccomodating. Check in is at 2pm, our room was not ready, upgraded, and then downgraded the next morning. Very unhelpful front desk.
