Hotell i New York nära East Harlem

Plus: Very Clean, staff very helpful & kind. Bed was super comfy. Bathroom super clean. I enjoyed my stay was grateful to know I had a nice relaxing place to rest & sleep for 3 nights.

Minus: The shower floor drain filled w water during shower. Drained very slow . It did drain after a short while. Only 2 bed pillows & were kind of flat, could have used 2 more.

Plus: I booked two room - one for 3 people, other for 7 people. The room for 3 people was set up all right. No complains there. In another room the bedding was prepared only for 6 people. I told that to the front desk. Still, when we returned to the hotel later at night there were no blanket nor pillow for 7th person. Also, this room has only 3 towels.

Minus: The room for three people was nice, clean and quite. Nice room.

Plus: I liked the location and the willingness of the not overly friendly person and the tiny desk to get me a key card when I didn't get the text facilitating keyless entrance. She also helped with one of my bags.

Minus: I left my largest bag at the desk because after walking up a flight of stairs to get into the building, I wasn't up for walking up two more flights to get to my room. The room was quite warm, which is, for me, always better than cold. No tub, just a shower, but clean and comfortable. I would stay there again on a trip when I had no luggage to carry. The stairs wore me out.

Plus: Very clean and very friendly people!

Minus: As is common for hotel rooms in New York City there wasn't much space.

Minus: Dåligt läge. Väldigt lyhört, både från korridoren och utifrån. Ingen hiss.

Plus: Really nice modern rooms, good size comfy beds, perfect for families with the separate bedroom. The microwave, fridge and coffee machine in the room was a nice touch

Minus: Walking to and from the nearest metro station was a little dodgy, although saying that we didn’t get any hassle at all.

Plus: We drove this time and there are a couple of garages nearby and also you could park on the street. We parked on the street and it worked out great. Just watch the sign on the street which days you can park if you are street parking. The location of the inn is near the exit of Harlem River Dr ext 20. The metro 2 and 4 train is 7 min walk.

Minus: Metro-North train and Subway run outside. The subway runs all night. Metro-North train in general very noisy. So if the window is open, the noise might bother you at night.

Plus: Clean room nice staff.

Minus: The pillow smelled weird and low lighting in the room.

Plus: The room was very clean and functional. It provided all the basics, microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator. Walking distance to Apollo, Red Rooster, Sylvia's very affordable for the location. I stayed at the Aloft for my first 2 nights of stay but wanted to stay an additional night but couldn’t afford to. I Found this gem at the last minute and was not disappointed as it was over $175 cheaper per night than the Aloft. I would’ve booked all 3 nights there if I had known about them. Would definitely go back! I would’ve saved over $500!

Plus: Room was very clean, cleaning staff and receptionist very friendly. Air con worked well but is very noisy and you need it on all night. Room had a fridge and microwave, which was useful. TV worked.

Minus: No night receptionist and no way to contact them - our bathroom locked itself from the inside when unoccupied in the night and we were unable to get in. We could not phone the emergency number as there is no phone in the hotel and the reception staff do not get in until 8am. Once they were in, it was sorted quickly. The area immediately around the hotel is very much Harlem; it's loud, lots of street sleepers and a fair number of drug users. It was fine to walk around in the day and you are only 2 blocks from the nearest Metro, but definitely not an area to walk around at dusk or night. Lots of drug users and homeless around the entrance to the Metro, but they didn't approach us and all was fine. The only time we felt threatened was once on the Metro train when a very stoned man lurched in. We had our young daughter with us and a fair number of New Yorkers moved to intercede; he walked off. The hotel is directly opposite a new primary school which is just opening, we had a lovely conversation with the principle.

Plus: Room well equipped with microwave, small fridge freezer and cups and plates. Nice standard room with TV double bed and desk nd air conditioned. Close to metro station 125th Street. Attentive and hardworking housekeeping staff.

Minus: No lift and property is over 3 floors.

Plus: Friendly staff. Comfortable beds, clean.

Minus: Area is ok. Bit far from Manhattan centre. To get to subway you walk through a bit shaky area. Other than that, it is great.
