The threes company room was perfect for our needs. It reminded us of a dorm room - it was very unique making good use of the space. The view from our room was also very nice. It was clean and comfortable.
Karen, 1-night trip

Hotel was okay for a quick stay. Bit older of a building so lighting and applicances were a little outdated but got the job done. Lots around and food/drinks on the property.

I love the Freehand!

Incredibly friendly staff that went the extra mile from reception to bell cap!
Natasha, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good place to stay a few days

It was a great place to stay. I would recommend it for people who mostly want to do stuff outside of their hotel room since the room was so small. But the location was great, the building is beautiful, and I was comfortable in my single queen bed room. The cafe downstairs serves good food, too. Just be warned that, at least in my room, there were no drawers to store clothing, though there was a closet and a few hangers.
4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Poor Experience – Not Recommended

The room was very dim, with a blinking foyer light and dark bathroom. There was a bad smell from the toilet, and basic amenities were missing—no kettle, coffee machine, mugs, or even paper cups. One power outlet didn’t work, and the shower curtain didn’t cover the whole area, causing water to spill. No view at all. Overall, poorly maintained and not worth the stay.
3-night trip

Excellent! Great location - nice room. Awesome coffee shop downstairs. Would definitely stay again!
Jamie, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Interesting, unique hotel in a great location, good and helpful staff, rooms are clean but generally small, which is not unusual for NYC hotels--convenient on-site restaurant, bar and coffee shop, plus a rooftop bar with beautiful views.
