Categories

Cleanliness
3.5
Multiple guests report serious cleanliness problems (stained/dirty carpets, filthy blinds, yellow bathroom stains); one guest described an unacceptably unhygienic room and refused to stay.
Service
8.8
Mixed reports: some guests praise staff as very good and welcoming, but at least one guest experienced poor front-desk handling (refund/ deposit issues and unhelpful reception).
Location
9.8
Consistently praised as an excellent, convenient location in reviews, though a few mention street/neighbor noise at times.
Room Quality
8
Rooms are described as appropriately sized and in some cases spacious, but others note dated decor, maintenance issues (window not closing, clogged bathtub) and need for renovation.
Amenities
8
Lobby and general hotel facilities receive positive mentions, but on-site F&B/ bathroom fittings have shortcomings (overpriced grab-&-go breakfast, missing/blackened shower head).
Value for Money
9
Several guests explicitly call it good value for money despite some extra costs (e.g., breakfast); overall perceived as a good option for short stays.
Food and Beverage
4.5
Food/Beverage feedback is negative: breakfast described as overpriced and grab-and-go rather than a proper offering.
Overall Experience
9.2
Overall sentiment is mixed but leans positive for many (good location, comfortable beds, helpful housekeeping); however isolated but severe cleanliness and service failures significantly impact some stays.

I would never stay here again.
Pros:

Good location to Central Park.

Cons:

Dirty room/carpet, sour smell in the room. No coffee machine in room, no refrigerator in room. The bed was very worn in and soft like a water bed. Desk service was rude and short with me.
