Very quirqy décor, absolutely best position in which to explore new York,best value for money!

Photo of double bed was bigger than actual bed,iPod dock wasn't compatible with my iPhone

Wow,just had the best holiday of my life in new York,and staying at the pod just enhanced the experience! I spent 2months solid trying to find a suitable hotel in which to explore manhattan,Brooklyn and Harlem(quite a feat!). The pod surpassed all my expectations,apart from the bed being a tad small and the docking station not compatible with my iphone,everything else good about it was just as the good reviews had said! We were close enough to walk to all main spots (5th avenue,times square etc) but if walking isn't your thing get a metro card(weekly unlimited $25!), the subway was less than 5min walk from hotel. I could write pages about my stay at the pod,but I'll wrap it up by saying that I'll definitelly stay there again and giving a quick tip to gym afficionados: not far from hotel, on 58th 2nd avenue,there's a gym called crunch who gave my partner a free 3 day pass,so check it out!

Travel tip : Nice gym called crunch on 58th 2nd avenue

Quite good location. Rooms really compact but have everything you need and are clean. A really fun stay.

The cafe was closed during our stay and there is no internet access which was a bit of a pain.

Having read other reviews we were a little worried what we were going to find but our room was great. They are small and you cant leave stuff lying around but when in New York you're not there to stay in your room so it's fine. Bed quite comfy and there is a roof terrace but it was a bit cold when we were there. I think there is a cafe but it's only open in the summer. A few nice restaurants nearby and not far from the subway (5mins walk)
