Econo Lodge Times Square New York

Hotel with good location on 8th avenue corner with 47th street. Close to visitors center. Rooms are small but I expected this. Also the hotel is not renovated in a while probably. An advantage is the cookies and coffee served all the day. Breakfast could be diversified. Anyway I enjoyed a lot my trip!

Excellent location, good breakfast and complimentary water & chips inside the room. However, the room is very small not ideal for two pax. The room also has this smell of sour laundry.

Location is excellent, it is located in Time square, very good location and subway is just 3 mins. From here you can easily go everywhere in NYC and the subway line is the same line to the air train. Very convenient, staffs are nice. They have snack like fruit and cookies to serve you all day by self service. Breakfast is also nice. I love location the most. The room is old and color smell as we smell it all the time but i feel it is valued for money except the room but it is ok for a night.

The hotel room is so small that my husband commented that walked 2 steps and will bump into you. Luckily, we only stay here for 2 nights. Staff were helpful and friendly. Complimentary breakfast presentable, bread and cakes. Near to Times Square and Port Authority. That's the only reason we chose this hotel.

I have been the first time in New York for attending the Forun Working Group on UNFF where was held at UN Headquarters. Luckily, I selected the right accommodation at Econo Lodge Times Square New York with easy to access to shopping, relax and restaurants, ...especially near my meeting place, UN HQ.

It's run down hotel which need acoustic upgrade for the street noise, or neighbor noise. The rate is considered high for such setup. Staff wasn't helpful when I'm at the front desk while he's on the phone, didn't bother to attend to your question. Overall environment is not friendly to visitor. Avoid this hotel if you could.

Location, location, location! This little gem is close to EVERYTHING we needed to go to while in NYC. We walked everywhere, watched 6 shows in 3.5 days. Rooms are tiny, but we expected that since it was New York. And in the middle of everything. Breakfast was simple but ample. Bagels, muffins, granola bars, pound cake, toast, coffee. Would stay here again for sure!

The rooms were small as expected but it was fit for purpose. Just enough for a couple looking to explore the city. Our room was cleaned daily. The towels were changed daily as well. The bathroom was tiny but very clean. The decor in the room needs a bit of upgrade but it's acceptable. The location is near everything... Time Square, subway, food, pharmacy, Big Bus terminal, etc. Although the Free daily breakfast was the same menu everyday we were there - Bagel, boiled egg, mini donuts, yogurt, fruits, bread, butter, cheese, ham, cereals, oatmeal, protein bar and orange juice - it was a plus as other hotels don't have free breakfast. 24/7 free coffee and tea at the lobby was fantastic. And there was a free chocolate chip abd oatmeal cookie everyday for snack. The staff were very friendly too. Plus because this wasn't a 5 star hotel with pools, gym, etc, you don't pay for resort fees - which is mandatory for other hotels.

We spent a week n this modest but cimfortablel hotel. It is an older hotel but it is very clean. The rooms are not big but this is New York. The staff were friendly and obliging. Yaw in particular with his lovely smile went out his way to ensure we had a comfortable stay. All the staff whether is was the housekeeping or the general staff, NEVER failed to smile and greet us. The complimentary breakfast was more than adequate. Coffee, tea and iced water were available 24/7 with an ice vending there for your use. The location was great. The hotel is so central with the tourist buses close by. To be able to walk out of your hotel door and be in Times Square was perfect for us. Traffic noise was not a problrm. The hiotel is in a side street and there is traffic moise but not rnough to disturb your sleep. The hotel also supply you with ear plugs shoukd you need thrm. We did not. We would most certsinly return to this hotel when next in New York!! Great value for money!

I was sooo lucky to choose thos hotel! the location is absolutely perfect - 2-3 minutes walk from Times Square, Broadway, Theartes, metro station (direct line to JFK airport) and nice restaurants. The hotel itself is rather small but very nice and clean. The breakfast insluded in the room fee is a nice addition to all the other advantages. The rooms are small indeed but it was absolutely fine for me, I could easily fit in with my suitcase. The bed was very comfortable. The only this I would suggest to upgrade is a window in the room - it has rather low sound protection from the street. From the other side even being in your room you do not forget that you are in the middle of NY city :) Anyway I really suggest this hotel for those who looks for good and simple service in a great location!

We stayed at the Econo Lodge for 6 nights. Location couldn't have been better with Times Square in sight as well as Broadway theatres, great places to eat and drink and good shopping. Also very close to multiple hop on and off buses. The room itself was basic and very small but clean and all you need whilst in NYC. Our only complaint was an issue with heating. The room was often like a sauna with staff members being the only ones able to turn it down. We asked three nights in a row and one night slept with the window wide open and the air con on when it was snowing outside and we were still hot! After 3 days the issue was resolved. Basic breakfast with paper plates and cutlery but we didn't realise this was included so was a bonus for us! Not many tables to sit at either as breakfast is in the Lobby. If you aren't after glitz and glamour this hotel is a win. Great value for money as a hotel room isn't where you want to be in NYC!

The staff was really friendly, explain everything and gave advise on restaurants and malls, breakfast was a nice touch, location is also very good, as you can walk to many of the tourist attractions, but rooms are really small, good for a young couple that wont stay for long periods on it, but not good for those with children, there wasnt much space to put suitcase, Though that there was lots traffic noise it was bearable.

Everything was great. The room was very small but I expected that from the start, and we were hardly in the room anyway. Everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. Great hotel, awesome value, perfect location.

Its very simple- location is fantastic, the price is right, and the clean rooms and the friendly staff make this a super value. Yes, the rooms (standard queen) are small. But when we go to NYC we spend next to no time in our room. For us its about location, cleanliness, and good customer service, and Econo Lodge delivers on all fronts. Things to consider- its NYC so expect sirens at all times of the day. We bring a noise machine with us and that really helps. pack what you need, because space is constrained so medium size luggage would be best. There are many places to east and drink all around within 5 minutes walk, close to subway, close to times square.

Good overall. Rooms small. Street noise loud. Room temperature somewhat difficult to control. Noise from other rooms a bother. Ear plugs provided, so the hotel knows its an issue. Staff very helpful and responsive. Breakfast not great but very reasonable. Coffee/tea/hot cocoa always available. Price reasonable. Location amazing, amazing, amazing. Was traveling with my husband and for us the location and the price were worth the downs.

It is a very good place for a week in NY. It is very near to principal atractions, clean, has a fair price and people are friendly. The room is small, it will be a problem if you have more than 2 suitcases. A little of noise from the streets at night. I liked it was very good for me and I will come back.

I stayed for two days in the hotel and was pleased with the great services they offered. The staffs are friendly and attentive, helping without being asked. I was so impressed by how nice they are in such a big city where everyone seems to pay less attention to others' needs. The only downside of this hotel is that the room is too warm and we had no control over the heater. Other guests were complaining about this too. Hope they will fix it.

I absolutley loved my stay at the Econo Lodge. The Staff are so friendly..they are there 24/7 ready to help you at anytime. The location is perfect and cetrally located to everything you willever need in New York. Their security measures is great, and their free breakfast and internet made it such a great value for money. The rooms are a bit small, but the property makes up for it in the service, the security, the location and the free internet and breakfast.

For around a night per person, this place offers superb value for money if you're in New York to see Broadway shows and to visit a lot touristy places. Our room was tiny though, but we didn't care cause we only went to our room to sleep, and it's very clean at least. They serve complimentary breakfast, but it's a very simple fare. However, they have a constant supply of coffee and tea in the lobby, and a wide range of tea at that, which is great as a quick warmer (especially in the winter!) There's also high-speed wireless internet, but it works sporadically, so don't rely on it for anything important. But it works well enough for email and social networking, so can't complain. The front desk staff is probably the friendliest I've seen almost anywhere in NYC, and was the most pleasant part of the trip. They were quick and efficient, and certainly exceeded my expectations. However, as per the heading, if you're asking the hotel to book you transit to the airport, you have to be quite sure and clear of what you want! We asked for a cab, which in NYC offers a guaranteed flat fare of $52 to JFK (plus tolls), but what the hotel ordered for us was a limo service (at no point was I told I'd be getting a limo until it arrived at 4.30 in the morning). This starts off at $65, and then the sky's the limit if you let the driver pile on the extra costs (there's no sign anywhere clearly stating the fees). He ended up trying to charge us $65 + $8 credit card fee + $10 for a stop (my partner and I were travelling on different airlines). He also tried to get us to pay him BEFORE he had made the trip. Absolutely dodgy and horrendous. In the end, we paid only the $65 + $8 because I stood my ground, but it was a terrible last impression of our relationship with the hotel. Overall, I'd still recommend this place for a stay, but you have to be on your toes for certain parts of it.

this is no 5 star hotel, the rooms are small, but spotlessly clean, bathroom small but clean, this hotel met our needs perfectly, all we required was a place to sleep, within easy access to all things touristy, this hotel is only 1 block from the centre of times square, the front desk hotel staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, tea and coffee available 24hrs in the lobby area. only issue we had, our room was uncomfortably on our 1st night, we mentioned this to a staff member the following morning, who had the hotel's heating system lowered, this wasn't an issue after. would have little hesitation in staying or recommending a stay here again, hard to get a better no frills, value for money hotel in nyc.
