Meh, but a good meh
This hotel is a perfect place to stay if you are low maintenance and on a tight budget. You can't ask for a better neighborhood than this to stay in (I'm partial- I used to live here). There are great restaurants and wine bars in the hood. Not the most party-area in NYC by any means but this hotel is right between two major subway lines. It was clean and there were no bed bugs, which is a major paranoia for me. The staff was ok; seemed bored with their jobs and didn't want to bother much beyond the minimum. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you are, like I said, not expecting much more than a place to lay your head in an amazing neighborhood!
