No title - expert review
The Howard Johnson Express Inn New York City is clean, comfortable, and reliable. It's pretty much like any other standard American chain hotel. However, the location—on the border of the cool East Village and hipster Lower East Side—makes this HoJo the trendsetter in the chain. Plus, th...

This hotel at the nexus of East Village and Lower East Side nightlife is perfect if you want to check out the downtown scene. A corner location increases your chances of having a view when you eventually rise to meet the day, and next door is a century-old knish bakery. The tastefully done rooms eac...

Nice but small - user review
Everything is small in NY, so if you want a nice location near the soho area, this is a good option. Dont let them give you a room in the first floor, noise all night. We changed to the 4th floor the next day and everything was ok. Traveler's tip on dining.Lomb...

Affordable in Manhattan - user review
For short stays where your room is used basically as a place to sleep, this hotel is perfect. The rooms are pretty small, but the location is good in that it's close to subways, Chinatown, Little Italy, SoHo and The Village. The hotel is clean, well maintained and the service is excellent. And, it's...

Great location - user review
Hotel staff for the most part were very friendly and helpful, with the exception of one person. We had a double room, and the room was quite small, the door would not open all the way with 2 beds in the room. Other than that, it was right across the street from subway and many good places to eat and...

Great crash pad - user review
I live outside NYC and commute a long way into work in the city each day. Our company was throwing a holiday party for its employees in Soho and I knew it was going to be a late night. Rather than drive home late after many drinks, I booked a room at this Howard Johnson's. It was just as I expected:...

i think that for what you can expect from nyc, this is about as good as it gets. if you want a great view, or great location, you can probably do better... but actually, this location, near soho, the village, the east village and lower east side is excellent if these are the areas you will be spendi...

New York never sleeps so why look for a big room... - user review
The hotel was in the heart of the lower east side which is the center for entertainment. Tons of restaurants and hangout clubs. The room was small but it served its purpose of a place to crash after a long night. Traveler's tip on nightlife.Rosarios around the corner is the place for a slice of za a...

Served its purpose for convenience - user review
The hotel's in a great location. It is old and has the bare necessities, with a great shower. It's perfect if you're planning to use it as a place to return to for sleeping purposes. It is sufficiently comfortable. Just don't plan on spending leisure time in your hotel room though. Traveler's tip on...

The room was tiny, but clean and comfortable. Location is perfect: we walked to SoHo, Chinatown and Little Italy for all the shopping and great food we could handle! Also, not a bad walk to Union Square, and a quick subway ride to Times Square. If you're going to NYC for pleasure, then how much time...

Well located for Lower East Side, Soho areas. - user review
The rooms were small but the hotel was very adequate for our needs. We were visiting our daughter in the area and wanted a hotel close to her apartment. This hotel was definitely more affordable if you are not spending much time in your room. Staff was accomodating. Street parking available on Satur...

Great for price and Lower East Side location - user review
This was your typical chain hotel but on a small, cozy scale; clean, free continental breakfast, small room but decently appointed.

Perfect Location - user review
We went to NYC to check out NYU for a possible college destination. This hotel was in the perfect location to do just that. The area seems to be a nice, safe area and we had no problem getting a taxi when we needed one. We will probably use this hotel again as NYU seems to be the college of choice! ...

Convenient location, close to SOHO, shopping! - user review
We would recommend this hotel if you're looking for an affordable place just to come back at night to sleep. We enjoyed the proximity to the cool boutiques in Soho. It's just a short walk and not too far from Little Italy and Chinatown. The subway station is right across the street. We had a room wi...

Not luxurious, but a good value in a great location for partying in lower Manhattan. Close to the Bowery Ballroom, Katz's Deli, lots of clubs and restaurants, Little Italy and Chinatown.

Perhaps not for everyone, but perfect for me. I love the lower east side neighborhood. I enjoyed the small, European sized room (who needs two queen sized beds in one room ) And the intimate size of the hotel itself.

The hotel's proximity to NYU, Katz deli, East River Park and attractions, the easy access to cabs and subway, the price quite reasonable for NY counterbalances the size of room which is adequate for a couple who is looking for a clean and safe room with shower, TV, quiet room, and a wired Internet c...
