    Neat, small & clean rooms. If you go for the shared bathrooms option, be aware there are only 4 of them on each floor. It can get busy in the mornings if you are in a hurry. Loved the subway tiles!

    Clean but small rooms and in great price for NY.Be prepare for a shower with a glass wall!Tip: You can leave your luggage kept in store, the day you check out, so you can enjoy the whole day in NY.

    Rooms are small, but very comfortable. We shared bathrooms, they were always clean and available. You can ask the girl in the lobby for information about the city, she is very helpful! Free wifi.

    Big hotel w/ tiny rooms. Good location and service. Although small, rooms are well equipped and comfortable. Breakfast's not included, but there're options at good price. Great view from the terrace!

    Excellent use of space. Über-clean rooms, free wifi and fun toiletries. Rooftop terrace is amazeballs. Rainfall shower is perfect after a long, hot day. Staff was pleasant enough so I'm happy :)

    Great little hotel with affordable rates and in the heart of the city. Get the solo room for privacy and share a clean bathroom ✊🏿

    You can print from the iPads in the lobby! Yummy granola and yogurt bowl but awful cafe service, the roof is the best part of this place!!!! Grab a bottle of cheap champagne and enjoy the night view

    Prison cell rooms, hair dryer is just for show. No one asks if you are happy with the services, the smell in the halls is "dusty". On the other hand, good location and they sell good bagels

    Good Hotel in Manhattan. Tiny but very clean rooms with or w/o private bathroom. Comfortable beds. Bistro in the lobby till 10 PM. Large rooftop terrace in 15th floor with a midtown's skyline view.

    Bring a wash cloth because the hotel doesnt supply rooms with any. Also bring shower shoes if you reserve a room without a bathroom.**call the front desk for an iron if needed.

    The rooms may be a little small but who cares! They are actually a perfect size for sleeping and getting ready. If you want to hang out inside, check out the lounge and cafe, HOWEVER, you ARE in NY!

    The best stylistic utilitarian hotel design! Rooftop rocks. Bring your ear plugs if you want an industry bed sleep as the bedroom and bathroom doors click all night long.

    Modern and trendy hotel. Very nice but tiny rooms. Free WiFi! Absolute great location! Do not miss the sun rising on its rooftop (staircase B)! Highly recommended!

    Conveniently located to the subway and reasonable for being in Manhattan. Staff was excellent and room was clean. If you need a bare bones room for sleeping only this is your place

    The POD hotel is just brilliant. Perfect for single/couples traveling to NYC. Not too sure for families. Brilliant use of space in rooms. Love it!

    "Awesome" :-) good location, prices and rooms are okay, but simple and small. Own rooftop bar and everything is around. Would recommend this hotel if ure going to do sightseeing.

    If you use a shared bathroom, dont forget to bring your room card/key. I did it last night so I have to go down to the lobby to get a new one in my undershirt. Not cool! Lesson learned.

    Very trendy, modern hotel. Save money and book a room with a shared shower (there are 4 of them on each floor), you will need those extra bucks in NYC ;)

    You want a good, quiet coffee that is close enough to the action but far away enough to be -- well -- far away enough. The Pod Hotel is really underground and boasts a nice outdoor seating area that i Read more

    Rooftop is nice. The stuff is a bit snob but the price is OK and the location is perfect for Manhattan. Rooms are clean and comfortable.

    Ultramodern design and mood music in hallways create a youthful vibe. Plus, the roof terrace boasts stunning views, especially at night.
