Grace NgDecember 21, 2013Neat, 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.
Ivana CMSDecember 24, 2015Big 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!
Ce PequeNovember 13, 2012Rooms 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.
Great hotel w/ small and cute rooms. Wonderful design. Close to the subway. They got baggage keep service & they can also order for you a taxi or a shuttle to the airport. Shuttle costs 22$ per person
sherrie gossettFebruary 24, 2019Great budget option. Always clean, very small, but everything you need. Modern.
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 :)
Absolutely loved the rooftop, grab a drink or a snack and enjoy some amazing views of NYC! 🗽
Ron JeramiahDecember 5, 2017Great little hotel with affordable rates and in the heart of the city. Get the solo room for privacy and share a clean bathroom ✊🏿
Barış KılıçAugust 12, 2017Prison 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
Kristina PuertoSeptember 6, 2012You 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
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.
Katie ChamberlainNovember 22, 2011The 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!
Tamara BodiApril 9, 2013The 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.
Cat HicksNovember 7, 2015Conveniently 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- Alicia LuqueAugust 19, 2011Modern 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!
Joel LumenAugust 15, 2013If 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.
MähbuMay 1, 2013"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.
Hilmi RamlanJuly 22, 2011The 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!
- Manjari RastogiNovember 23, 2013Pop @ pod just opened up tonight- delicious! Vegetarians should definitely go for the invisible burger - 3 amazing sliders! Yum!
MichalJuly 6, 2012Very 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 ;)
Begum TekinAugust 6, 2014Cute hotel with great location. Rooms are tiny but very clean. Has a rooftop. The only downside was the noise.
Allison KaminskiDecember 16, 2015Great location and suppose to have a good rooftop. Stayed for work and my coworker had a bed bug 😔
Hands down the coolest hotel I stayed in! Great location, great staff and delicious truffled popcorn!! I highly recommend it!- Katie LynnMay 6, 2013What a cute hotel! Loved it. Great rooftop and garden cafe with La Colombe coffee. Awesome.
Cheap, decent. Would be nice to be more tech friendly, lighting clock radios, android support. Bigger tv. Dorito's dispenser
Tomer LeviAugust 6, 2013Amazing hotel, rooms are small but just enough for a couple. Free WiFi and great pubs around
Advertising WeekAugust 30, 2010You 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
Ozan VuralJuly 10, 2011Rooftop 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.
Kate K.March 29, 2012I've stayed here twice - both times a good experience. Can't beat this NYC location, & I love the mod atmosphere.
Otel.comApril 16, 2013Try to eat your breakfast on the rooftop. It has great views and a lovely atmosphere.
Hotel TonightAugust 24, 2011Ultramodern design and mood music in hallways create a youthful vibe. Plus, the roof terrace boasts stunning views, especially at night.- Ce PequeNovember 13, 2012Great location! I went after Sandy -no subways- and I walked around the city. Breakfast: bagel with cream cheese.
Ian ChalupowiczAugust 4, 2013Rooms are really nice, beds are comfortable, the only big issue is that you hear every noise from the corridor.
Friendly staff small but clean rooms. Airco makes a bit to mutch noice
⚠️Macro Error⚠️February 23, 2013This place is amazing. Kind of a dormy flow but amazing nonetheless. Rating: Five gold stars out of five.
Elliott SNovember 21, 2013Come downstairs to Pop for some delicious Pop Burgers, fries, drinks and fun!!!

Caro de la PazJanuary 21, 2014Nice hotel, nice bar. Don't expect amazing rooms but they're clean and confortable- Very Nice central placed, good price, small rooms, Nice housekeeping and relaxed lobby
