Food and Drink Options
While there’s no on-site restaurant, you’re in a food-lover’s paradise. Step outside and you’ll find
24-hour eateries, late-night dumpling spots, and classic NYC delis within minutes. For morning-after recovery, several cafés nearby offer
brunch and breakfast options well into the afternoon. There’s no room service here, but delivery apps work flawlessly with the hotel's front desk.
Nightlife Options
You're just blocks from some of NYC’s most iconic nightlife, whether it’s underground jazz clubs, dive bars with live music, or rooftop lounges in nearby SoHo. Though the hotel itself doesn’t feature a bar, its location gives you easy access to late-night spots where you can sip a local cocktail or catch a DJ set.
What People Say
Guests consistently praise the
excellent location, noting it’s ideal for exploring downtown and getting to shows. Many love the
clean, minimalist rooms and say it’s perfect for short stays. Reviewers also highlight the
helpful, 24-hour staff and reliable WiFi as major pluses.
Areas for Improvement
Rooms are on the smaller side—typical for NYC—and there’s no in-room coffee or fridge. Some guests mention the walls are a bit thin, so light sleepers might want to pack earplugs. But for the price and location, most feel it’s a fair trade-off.
