Location: The location is great, and it's lovely to stroll around the SoHo and NoHo areas. I much preferred the vibe here compared to the place I stayed at in Times Square later on.
Cleanliness: I was surprised that someone cleaned the room every day, and the bed was always neatly made when I returned. Although the space was small, it smelled nice and was quite tidy, not dirty at all.
Environment: The environment was also very good, and the bed was comfortable to sleep in, making me feel secure. The wash area, bathroom, and toilet were all clean. Everything had a pleasant scent.
Overall: As long as you don't have very high demands for sleep quality and space, this place is quite a bargain. If you have a small suitcase and can accept sleeping only 5-6 hours a night due to being a light sleeper, I highly recommend it! The hotel I stayed at in Times Square afterward was nearly triple the price, but the experience wasn't three times better than here.
Minor drawbacks:
1. Regarding noise: It was a bit noisy, but not excessively so, as everyone was very considerate. Perhaps due to the lack of a ceiling, I could clearly hear other guests going to the toilet or getting a drink. Being a light sleeper, I basically woke up at 6 AM every day and couldn't fall back asleep. Also, I had to be very careful in the room myself, as I was afraid any sound might disturb others.
2. Regarding hot water: I took three showers in total. One in the afternoon was almost cold water; one at dusk was lukewarm; and one in the evening started lukewarm but then turned hot. So, if you plan to shower, I recommend doing so in the evening. Of course, the water pressure was very low.
PS: You can get free drinking water from the pantry on the ground floor.
