Best for
This hotel suits travelers who want to explore Lower Manhattan on foot, with the Brooklyn Bridge and the 9/11 Memorial & Museum nearby and the Wall Street ferry port a short walk away. It’s also a strong fit for guests who prioritize a modern room setup (desk, Wi‑Fi, minifridge) plus on-site basics like a gym and lounge.
Travel tips
Plan time for Downtown street activity: the hotel is on a busy street, which can be a factor if you’re sensitive to city noise. Use the nearby Wall Street ferry port for efficient waterfront connections, and build walking itineraries around close landmarks like the Brooklyn Bridge (699 m) and One World Trade Center (1,045 m). For farther sights such as Times Square (6,041 m) and the Museum of Modern Art (6,615 m), expect a longer cross-town trip compared with staying in Midtown.
What guests say
Guests frequently highlight the location as a major advantage, noting easy access around Lower Manhattan and strong overall value for the price. Cleanliness and comfort come up positively, including praise for very clean bathrooms, good showers, and comfortable beds. Service is a recurring strength, with multiple mentions of kind, professional staff and smooth, efficient support (including for special occasions and busy city days). A minor critique appears around room design, suggesting the aesthetic or layout isn’t universally loved even when the stay is still rated positively.
