Midtown Convention Center Hotel

The main and biggest asset of this place is its location. For a very reasonable price you can stay in the heart of Manhattan. You can get on foot in only 15 minutes to Madison Square Garden, 20 minutes to Times Square and 25 minutes to Empire State Building. There's also a big communication hub nearby (train + metro) - the Pennsylvania Station, where you're most likely to end up when arriving from JFK. Hotel staff is very helpful, so if you need anything don't be afraid to ask them. Nevertheless, cleanliness of the hotel is something they can work on. Towels (although felt like they've been recently washed) had some big stains on them and we've found some hairs on our bedsheet (but sheets themselves also felt like washed). There was also a minor issue regarding unusual operating instructions for the shower, but the hotel staff came to help really quickly.

Stayed there for 5 nights with my 10 year old kid. ++ : the location is just perfect. We walked most of the time from the hôtel to times square, empire state building, rockerfeller centre, madison square garden, etc. Took the Subway to go to the statue of liberty, 9/11 memorial and central park. The bed is extremely comfortable, the room is clean, and the personnel is nice. -- : the room is smaller than in looked in the pictures when i booked it, and there's very little pressure in the shower. The bathtub was a little clogged as well. Given the price, this is a great place to stay. Will definitely come back next time.

I don't understand why people have made such negative comments about this place. There is a reception at the entrance and the employees are very helpful. The beds are viscose and conform to your body shape, very comfortable. The room is generally clean. There are plenty of closets to put your belongings. There is an iron and ironing board. It's a safe place. In terms of location, it is in the best place for me. What more could it be…

Cheapest midtown NYC hotel. Dated but functional and beds are quite comfortable. I saw the other reviews and was quite apprehensive. Yes there was a hole in the bathroom ceiling. Yes there was a bit of plaster missing off the wall. However, it was clean, the hole was covered up, the hotel is quiet, the staff are friendly, nothing went wrong, everything worked. It was not luxury, it was $500 cheaper than the next hotel in line over the five days I stayed. The bed was as good as any expensive hotel. It was 100% memory foam and thick and a good nights sleep. The hotel is between 10th and 11th avenues, close to Hudson Yard subway on line 7. So it’s an extra 10 mins walk from Times Square or Penn Station compared to hotels on 6th or 7th. As a result it is much quieter, no queues, no hooting from cars. A nice stay. A real bargain. I’m glad I picked this hotel and saved $500 to spend at Macy’s!

A good place to stay in Manhattan as it is Centrally located, and a short cab ride to most of the mid Manhattan tourist attractions. The prize is right for the location, though the hotel itself is older. The rooms are small, and cramped and furnished with the basics. We stayed in 2 rooms for 7 people, and when we were not out being tourists, we found it more comfortable sitting around and hanging out at the lobby’s large breakfast table, than trying to relax in the small rooms. The mattresses in our double room where made of memory foam, which we found soft, but comfortable enough. Though it’s an older hotel the rooms are clean. Friendly staff.

Room was nice, clean and beds were ok. Staff is incredible, we had an issue with the TV and someone was at our room to fix it in a very short time. The only negatives were the shower handle fell off, the internet wouldn't work, and there was no ice machine or ice bucket. But my family enjoyed our stay and will probably be returning.

My stay for a weekend was great. My room was nice and cozy and clean. The bathtub/shower was great water was nice and hot. I arrived in NYC a bit early before check in and my room was ready. Only problem was they couldn’t get my tv to work it kept telling me it wasn’t a signal. Called front desk they sent a guy up and he tells me it’s nothing he can do he tried. So I was a weekend with no television service. But overall I will return love the spot I was in walking distance to Times Square was perfect.

Rooms where tiny but bigger than most midtown hotels in NYC. Very clean. Breakfast was ok. We found the staff to be really helpful as we were in a hurry to get to Times Square for the Ball drop and very friendly. Not too expensive either. Really close to Times Square too and other attractions. Would recommend. It's location also allows you not to get into the heart of the traffic as it is located next to the Lincoln Tunnel. Downsides : Parking isn't free. (47$ USD after hotel discount -- make sure to get the stamp from the reception to get the discount!) PS.: The picture was taken right next to the hotel. Scenery was amazing.
