ROW NYC
"Beautiful lobby, great location, excellent breakfast at Percy All Day. Staff there were superb. That's where it ends. Registration staff are another story all together. There is no absolutely no joy there, the woman who checked me in acted like she hated people. No smile, no welcome, no thank you ..."

Pod Times Square
"Location is ideal, rooms are small but very cosy and comfortable. At peak times, elevators take a long time. However, overall the pod offers a great balance between cost and comfort."
