Nothing like the photos and reviews suggest
My room was nothing like the photos. It wasn't even like the room I booked for my traveling companion. I did not have any sort of table or desk. My bed barely fit in the room. The only electric outlets (to charge phone, etc) was by the bathroom sink, which had no counter so I I had to place items *in* the sink to charge them and had to keep toiletries in the small chest (drawers would not close). I couldn't ever get the room cool (at Christmas!). The walls were all skinned up. When we checked out, I could barely get the counter guy to take the keys, and he made no effort to give us a statement or otherwise say "OK". The two elevators were small and slow and a five-minute wait was normal. The location is a couple blocks from Times Square but the experience was miserable.

Julio was the best feature of the hotel
The condition of the hotel was what we expected for the price. The location is excellent to see shows. Staff was friendly and attentive, with Julio being the superstar. He is a consummate host and bent over backwards to make sure we had a pleasant stay.

Walls are thin you can hear what’s going on in other rooms and halfways. One Elevator was broke and the other one is small and slow that was very inconvenient but we were only there for 1 night.

Convenient Location
Girls trip of four 50 year olds - two stayed in the queen bed and two of us got bunk beds! We laughed and were a bit worried one would crush the other, but all was good. Great place to stay if you're not spending a lot of time in the room, but out in NYC. Super convenient location, affordable pricing. Lots of work being done when we were there and the website isn't updated (I told them) so no breakfast is included anymore and there IS a fee to leave baggage with the concierge. Other than those minor inconveniences, great choice!!

You get what you pay for
Heat and hot water was out for two days prior to our arrival. Only one elevator was working and it was a 10 minute wait every time you needed to go back to your room. We used the stairs and we were on the 10th floor so it was a trek. Saw various bugs in our room which was unsettling. But, you get what you pay for. So for $150 a night in timea square during the holidays I wasn't expecting glamour.

WORST STAY EVER
DO NOT STAY at this hotel. Read the reviews! No heat, no warm water, electricity blows when using the space heater which was their only pathetic accommodation. Dirty! Noisy. Non-responsive staff. Cold air coming in from unwinterized window air conditioner unit. Terrible lighting, water from shower floods bathroom floor. No wonder you can only book as non-refundable. Then, there's No way to change rooms last minute anywhere in the city and didn't want to be out $900! Hotels.com should remove it from their listing or do more to get refunds after customers complain.

Would never stay here again.
Not a good experience! The rooms had mold (windows, shower, and room floor boards), no A/C or heater, and extremely small. Elevators took incredibly long, and mid stay one elevation was out of commission (only two elevators total). Shower backed up and we had to get maintenance…and heater transformer was bad, so no heat on very cold days. Boiler also went out on entire building, no hot water on one day of stay.

Pricey but good.
Small but okay room, excellent beds, elevator took long to come, maid very nice, no breakfast but plenty of places around where you could get food, very pricey for what you get but that’s because of the location. Super easy to walk to the hotel after our Broadway show.

Over Priced and Under Delivered
Air conditioning unit filthy and dust caked. Controls didn’t work right. No hot water in shower one morning. Television remotes in second bedroom didn’t work, even different one grumpy night desk guy gave us. Towel rack falling off the wall. Ceiling in second bedroom collapsing and appeared to be moldy. Some room lights didn’t work. Everything in room seemed worn down and needed replacing. Positive is great location. Maid and front desk check in folks very nice. But definitely not worth the price we paid per night.

Perfect location
We stayed at this hotel during our trip to New York, and the best thing about it was the location. It was in walking distance to everything, which made getting around the city super convenient. Another great perk was that we arrived early and were able to check in and get our room right away. However, there were a few downsides. The room was very small, though that wasn’t a big issue for us. The main problems were with the temperature control—it was uncomfortably hot during the first two nights and then too cold for the last couple of nights. Additionally, we didn’t have hot water for a shower one of the mornings, which was frustrating. Overall, while the location and early check-in were excellent, the inconsistent temperature and lack of hot water impacted our stay. Does this align with what you’d like to say?
