cheap for a reason
if i could give this hotel 2.5 stars I would. It is not a dump but was clean for my stay. The room was small but not the smallest i've stayed in. It was in a decent neighborhood one block from the subway and the desk clerk was efficient. That said, the hotel has no ice machine, you have to buy it by the cup across the street for $.75 a cup. They have limited TV and no Fox News. The elevator (1) was always too busy to pick me up since it has an attendant and I had to walk up and down 3 flights of stairs with my bags. You can do worse than this hotel but when its rates are below $!20 a night, it sure beats the Ganesvoort across the street at $400 a night.
