A rather good budget hotel...
Liked: This is closer to a hostel than a hotel. That may work for you and your budget but be aware of what it means: the barest essentials, shared bathroom, an uncomfortable bed and very thin walls.I think reviews should be relative to the price point: this a budget option, but even so I think 3 stars overall is slightly generous. There were positive points though:- A very central and convenient location in Manhattan - The A/C unit in my room worked well- The wifi worked well- Re the shared bathroom, the water pressure and heater were acceptable
Disliked: I don’t think I had too high of expectations for this room. I knew it was a budget option for the location. That being said:- The bedroom wooden floor was not obviously dirty but somehow sticky- The bed is makeshift with slats 3 feet apart, enough to make me sink in between them. The mattress needed to be replaced.- Sharing a bathroom can be tough, especially when it’s left looking like a lake and abandoned towels- Early morning noise, especially a loud phone conversation, can be incredibly disruptive and frustrating. It's understandable that you can be bothered by the cleaning lady shouting on the phone. This can be particularly jarring when you're trying to sleep in or start your day peacefully.- You’ve to get great ear plugs as walls are very thin and there are uncivilized people

Good
Liked: Good value for money and great location near 5th Avenue. Room was clean and had decent facilities. I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it was as I was expecting a lot of noise from outside.

A clean and friendly place...
Liked: Great location with three subway stations nearby and easy walking distance to Fifth Avenue. The staff was very kind, everything was clean and well maintained. Shared bathrooms were always spotless and available, with two on our floor.
Disliked: No elevator and it can be noisy.
