Pros:

Walking distance to United Nations Headquarters, affordable and still good quality, clean and comfy, nice staff

Cons:

Elevator takes long to go up and down, but I guess that‘s normal in New York‘s high buildings

Great location, too expensive for small and bad rooms, unbelievable view terrace
Pros:

Great Location close to the Rockefeler center, Moma and Central Park. Surrounded by restaurants and cafes- Million dollar view Terrace open all day and late night.

Cons:

Room too small and not functional. Air Conditioner did not work well, it would be freezing and then turn off completely during the night. Bathroom shower walls were dirty with long hairs all over. Bathroom door did not open or close so there was no chance for privacy when showering or using the toilet. As soon as we came into the room we went down stairs to try to get a room with a better view but were told pod was full and had no more rooms, person did not even try to help us. Facilities seem to be outdated, need maintenance. No usb charging on the rooms. Hair dryer did not work. Our overall experience was not good at all. Would not recommend.

Dobry stosunek jakości do ceny
Pros:

Świetna lokalizacja i korzystny stosunek komfortu do ceny

Cons:

Pokoje są naprawdę duszne i klaustrofobiczne - jeżeli planujesz tu tylko spać to super opcja. Jeśli jednak chcesz odpocząć w pokoju poszukaj czegoś innego
