Okay - but not a great nights sleep!
The stay was okay - and had many plus points, such as location and friendly staff. However, the incredibly loud knocking pipes multiple times in the night in the room is a no no! This meant I was basically awake from 4 am every morning. I did tell the front desk but nothing was done. I appreciate it’s an old building but you shouldn’t sell rooms which emit houses that wake people

Great staff, all the essentials.
The staff were all amazing and kind. The room itself has everything you need for a small stay. The bathroom was a little too small and not the most clean.

This was an excellent choice for a very affordable safe, clean, convenient room to myself in Midtown Manhattan. Lots of options as well for those who want to spend less and share one of many bathrooms in the hallway, really fun lively bar on the property and the staff are great. No complaints whatsoever.

Pleasantly surprised!!
Pod 51 actually blew my expectations. After reading mostly good reviews, I tried it form myself for 2 nights. The room and bathrooms were super clean, even though the bathrooms were shared. I really don’t have any complaints other than don’t get a room next to the bathrooms because of the constant opening and closing of doors sound.
