totally artsy and awesome!

The hotel is really close to madison square park. i walked there every morning! i found tons of cool shops and places to eat nearby, so convenient. the staff was super helpful, especially with directions. the shared bathrooms were surprisingly clean. I never had to wait to use one.
I noticed a slight musty smell in the hallway on the third floor. It wasn't too bad though.

Decent Artistic Stay
great locationunique hotelfree coffeethick dustpeeling plasticrepeated painting
The hotel has an amazing location. It is close to many great buildings and restaurants. Every floor is painted by a different artist so the hotel is very unique and artsy. Free coffee is available in the morning if you like it black.
The doors and walls have been repainted dozens of times so judging the room's cleanliness is difficult. I saw a thick layer of dust on the chandeliers and baseboards. It's time to replace the toilet seat because the plastic peels off in layers.

I found the location fantastic. It was a quick trip to key manhattan tourist spots. the staff was friendly. the hotel is close to grocery stores, public transport, and madison square park. the room felt private!
The hallway smelled like a toilet. I tried hard not to vomit. the coffee was free in the morning but tasted bad.

The double room featured unique art on every wall. I enjoyed the distinct character. a sink and mini-fridge offered convenience. These were useful for storing snacks and drinks. lighting was adequate and i liked the quirky atmosphere.

This hotel is located in a pedestrian-friendly area, gramercy. i found it central and easily accessible to many attractions. the hotel faced a quiet pedestrian street. I appreciated the calm environment. there was a breakfast place across the street that was affordable.

the location is very convenient. the staff was friendly and helpful (they gave me some useful tips). the art throughout the hotel created a unique atmosphere.
the shared bathrooms were small and not very clean. the room's door lock seemed old and not very secure. my room had some visible cracks on the walls (it was a bit concerning).

the room was cozy and had everything i needed.
Cleanliness was a real issue. Floors were sticky and covered in hair, and i did not see anyone cleaning. the lack of air conditioning made it too hot, while the single hook served as a wardrobe. the shared bathrooms were not clean.
