Great value and very well located
The location is superb and you can walk to many of the attractions. The staffs are incredibly helpful and friendly. While the room is a bit small, it is comfortable and quiet. I enjoyed my stay and had very restful sleep during my two nights stay in the hotel.

As-expected and good budget option
Room was as-expected. Just the basics with no frills, but looked like the photos and everything in the room was clean. The hallways and stairwells are definitely outdated and have a unique smell, but for a low-cost room in this area, it was sufficient. The staff are incredibly friendly and supportive.

Staff is awesome and very helpful. Dinner adjacent has very good breakfast. Older property and very firm and small bed. Room was clean. Overall good choice for the price.

6/10 Good

The rooms are okay, but the hotel is old and dingy. Staff service was okay. I appreciate the fact that they gave me a refund when I decided to move to a better hotel.

6/10 Good

Good location for tourists. Very slow draining tub and the toilet didn’t always refill itself with water. Staff was very kind.
DANIELA CECILIA VEGA, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The value for the property and the location is unbeatable. Yes, it’s an older hotel, so as many reviewers have commented, it has a bit of a musty smell in the hallways. The room, however, was clean, quiet and comfortable. Staff is super friendly. If you are looking for great value and a very accessible neighborhood I highly recommend the Touchstone Hotel.

4/10 Fair

JPM limits options
I decided to prioritize being walking distance to my meetings over a nice hotel and it was JPM week so everything was crazy expensive. However, I’ve stayed in similar older smaller hotels off Union Square before and this was worse for similar priced options. Floor covered in dust bunnies, radiator heat didn’t work first 36 hrs, bed very uncomfortable. I have to give props to team though - 24/7 locked & manned door and most staff quite friendly and helpful. Elevator was functional.

Nice stay
Very nice clean room. The hotel had no cable channels. Bathroom nice. A refrigerator and microwave would be a plus.

Hidden gem
We really enjoyed this hotel, mostly because the staff were so kind and helpful, and the beds were so comfortable. It was HOT, and our room was pretty hot but the fan helped. I think I'll be back.
