Comfortable and clean. Friendly staff. Close to everything. Couldn't find a place to iron clothes except for the bed. The restaurant has vegan oprions, but nothing keto friendly (diabetic here).

My stay at Yotel New York left me sleep-deprived, traumatised and confounded. My trip to New York was a school trip, so I did not expect the following to occur. To begin with, it obvious that all this place is good for is late night romance. It is further proven by the vending machine on each floor that sells condoms. My roommate and I were greeted by sounds of our neighbours who were obviously having a better stay than we were, and it was safe to say that we were scared. The walls are almost paper thin which caused an array of sounds to travel into our bedroom. While the rooms were accessible, they were also weird and outdated. Some cabins consist of bunk beds with ladders, and one of my fellow peers had their ladder detached from the wall. I mean, talk about safety hazards?? The hotel also stressed their smoke-free policy, but our lovely neighbours decided to smoke colossal amounts of weed that got to the extent that we had to change rooms. As for the food, I cannot comment as I did not dine at the restaurant. My honest advice would be to not holiday here with young children unless you want them exposed to the tomfoolery that occurs in these hallowed halls. While I do understand that this is the centre of New York and this can appear inevitable, it is recommended that you seek alternative accommodation if you are not interested in listening to people having intimate relations in a place where is literally no sound proofing.

Horrendous stay. I reserved the penthouse suite with terrace balcony. $3000 for two nights. The “penthouse “ is on the 8th floor ( out of 27 ). There was an extremely strong smell of weed. The living room TV didn’t work at all and no one ever came to fix it. The bedroom TV had minimal working channels. The bedroom door leading to the terrace had… Read more
Horrendous stay. I reserved the penthouse suite with terrace balcony. $3000 for two nights. The “penthouse “ is on the 8th floor ( out of 27 ). There was an extremely strong smell of weed. The living room TV didn’t work at all and no one ever came to fix it. The bedroom TV had minimal working channels. The bedroom door leading to the terrace had no handle on either side and would not open. The bed itself was the most uncomfortable hotel bed I’ve ever slept in. The Hot tub on the terrace had standing water in it with multiple dead bugs. The chairs and day beds on the terrace were badly stained and had numerous cushions missing. There was remnants of weed and blunts all over the terrace floor. It looks as if they don’t even care that a guest is coming to stay in these rooms. They did the bare minimum to prepare the room for us to stay in ( made the bed and put towels out ) and that’s it ! They have no repercussions so they don’t care. If I were to leave, they’d still charge me for both nights and they are used to people complaining so it has no affect on them at all. STAY AWAY !!! You’ve been warned Read less
