Small, practical, good location - but more of a nightclub than hotel
Booked this hotel for me and my wife (both 30+) after some friends stayed there mostly because of the location and that the price was alright compared to lots of the alternatives.
However I doubt I will come back and stay at Yotel
The staff are very friendly and the rooms are clean, but it seems as if this hotel cannot make up its mind of wheter it is a nightclub or a hotel and to be honest I did not like the combination of the two they are trying to create.
Coming home after a day of shopping or a romatic dinner and being forced to hurdle through crowds of young people with extremely loud music when the reception and restaurant is transformed into a noghtclub was not for us.
The 19-year old me would have loved it, but as most of the hotel-guests seemed to be in our age and above and all the club-guests seemed to be much younger and not staying at the hotel the combination is just annoying.
The rooms are super-small, but works ok because of the smart sollutions.
We paid extra for a view and since this was our first visit to NYC I had hopes of being able to enjoy this view from the room or even the bed, but since the only window was next to the shower and toilet where you need to have the curtains closed since there are lots of opposite buildings with a direct-view to the room we almost had no use of the view.
