For Those On A Budget... - user review
Considering that we did not pay an extravagent amount for this hotel, I really was not expecting much. My fellow travels and I really just wanted a place to lay our heads at night. We got that. Bathrooms were shared between several rooms but always very clean. This is a perfect place for students an...

good for the money - user review
For the cost of staying at this hotel, (cheap compared to others), the hotel is a decent place to stay. I stayed for a night but had some slight issues with the hotel. For instance, the room they assigned to me was clean, but the door would not lock. I had to ask for another room, but the next room ...

Excellent location, clean room and always felt safe - user review
I knew it would be very basic based on the price, so I went in expecting not much. I was impressed with how clean it was and the bathrooms were cleaned many times in one day. Our room was a bed, fridge and t.v comfortable and clean, safe and secure. Staff good answered questions and helpful. Locatio...

Not sure what to say - user review
I was prepared for a low quality/comfort hotel, but this I must say is a little more than I had imagined. The entrance of the hotel is nicely decorated, but once you get up to the rooms, it's a whole different story. The rooms are small and the maintance needs some serious attention. The sheets and ...

much better than i expected - user review
I was worried that for the incredibly cheap price I paid that my room would be disgusting, the bathrooms would be dirty and the atmosphere would be too loud. NONE of these things were a problem at all! It was very very quiet all night. The showers were relatively clean. my room was a little dingy bu...

Very Basic at a good price. - user review
I would not stay here for a romantic get away. For a few days in the city at a reasonable price, it was a good deal. Not far from the Subway. It was a little better than I expected given the other reviews I read. The shared bathrooms were clean and comfortable and not heavily used. The rooms seemed ...

It is so old and not so clean,honestly. But,probably this hostel is very important for people who have no money but still want to stay inside Manhattan...like us. We thank this hostel. People were friendly (not only people who work for hostel but also people who stay there) Although I cannot put thi...

Nice area but bad hotel. Street parking is available around the hotel if you drive around for a while. There are 4 bathrooms per floor, quite clean but nothing fancy. Building is old and ugly from inside. Tons of good restaurants are located a block away. If you are looking for a quick night's rest ...

A story with a happy ending - user review
Ok, so right when we got to the hotel and saw our room, we were amazed at how small it was. Think of the size of your average bedroom and cut it in half! Also in our first room, the heater made this god awful noise. But, I went to the desk and asked for a new room. They had no problem at all with th...

Probably OK for a one star hotel - user review
Positive: Small but clean room (about 3 x 3 meters). Working sink in room. Quiet. One block from subway station. Negative: poor signal on tv (damaged cable). No clothes hangers in the wardrobe. One of the windows was not closing properly a problem in cold nights. Old building and furniture but maint...

Can Recommend Only if One’s Expectations are Realistic - user review
So true, you get what you pay for. If you go in with low expectations, they will be met. In our case, we knew we were arriving in Manhattan late at night (9 p.m.) and leaving early the next day. We were greeted nicely. The building is somewhat old. The room was delapidated, but at least the sheets a...

Budget Room - user review
The hotel is run down, but painted to give a fresh appearance. The bed didn't provide enough support for me, but I like mine on the firm side. I was most impressed with the hotel staff who were very helpful and courteous. Traveler's tip on recreational activities.This hotel is only a few blocks from...

You Get What You Pay For - user review
The hotel met our basic needs; hot water, clean room, safe neighborhood, and close to destinations and subway/bus stops. However, the aesthetics were awful. If they repaired the walls, repainted them, and replaced the matted, dirty carpet with tile the place would be great! The building is really ol...

Worst hotel - user review
This hotel I will never go back to. Yes, the location is perfect as it is near many attractions and easliy to get anywhere else in the tri state area but the hotel is something you would see in a slum city. The hotels in 3rd world countries our better. The rooms where roach infested, wierd noises fr...

The one bad thing about our trip - user review
This was the second hostel we stayed at on our trip. It did have an elevator which was good however the room was very dingy feeling. Carpet was disgusting, I never even walked around in socks. I was sooo thankful I brought our own sheets and pillowcases because the bed had hair in it. No place to ha...

I arrived at the west end studios after a long flight to find that they had no record of my prebooked and prepaid reservation (or so they claimed) as it was late at night I was forced to pay ninety five dollars for one night! I arrived in my room and, had I not been so exhausted, I would have gone s...

I read all the comments just before leaving and was scared to discover this place.

Me and my friend arrived here after a long flight all the way from Norway, and after having read all the bad comments on this place (after we had booked a room for a week), we were prepared to be met with a poor place. No matter how prepared we were for this, we were really disappointed. The resepti...

My family paid about $120 to stay here, and it was our worst hotel experience ever! I would rather sleep on the street. Actually, our friends had two nights booked there, and after the first night, they packed their bags, and the second night they slept at the airport!!! It was so hot in the room. O...

Pure fraud. They will charge you for being scared of the place and wanting to leave. There is no security (no phones in the rooms, no working tv, strange hard to lock doors, dark hallways and no vigilance at the desk). It's dirty, stinky, the communal bathrooms and showers are terrible and sometimes...

This place is horrible. I could have slept in a dumpster for free and saved a lot of money. We checked in, walked to our room, looked at it, and went straight back to the front desk and told them we were leaving. The room was disgusting, filthy, smelly, unsafe, broken windows, and cockroaches. We le...

We had a reservation for five nights in July 2004. We got there and left the next morning. This place is dangerous, filthy, unprofessional, and a total scam. Beware we booked this place because it was recommended by hotels.com. There were cockroaches in the room, and holes in the mattress. I have tr...

We stayed for a few days at the West End Studios. I must say that I cannot recommend this place. It must be possible to stay at a better hostel/hotel for 97 dollars. West End is not clean: not the rooms, not the bathrooms. The quality of the beds is really bad, the desk clerks unprofessional, and th...

If you need a no frills place to stay in Manhattan and are familiar with the neighborhood, this is a great deal. The communal bathrooms were clean, but the water pressure in the showers was terrible. If I come back to stay for one night, Ill just skip the shower. West end studios are definitely a go...

I've been to this hotel twice its perfect if you don't want to spend a lot of money. Its only a few trains stops to almost every attraction in NY its pretty much a place to sleep nothing more.

Over heated and in disrepair. My room leaked and the heater literally chugged like a steam, train all day and night. The carpet was wet from the leeks and I go very sick. At 3am a loud crash woke me from my fevered sleep. A large piece of ceiling had bombed my bed and sprayed my face with plaster wh...
