When I go to New York, I am always looking for a more affordable hotel option (without having to resort to a fleabag). Pod 51 was not only affordable, but was surprisingly comfortable. The room (I stayed in a single with a shared bathroom) is small, but I still had room for storing my stuff. The bed was also very comfortable. The shared bathrooms were very clean, and the shower was one of the nicest hotel showers I've ever seen. The staff was incredibly friendly and seemed very helpful to those not familiar with New York. The hotel is in a very nice neighborhood near the United Nations headquarters. It isn't the most happening part of town, you'll want to go elsewhere for the good restaurants, bars, sightseeing, etc. But the hotel is pretty close to several subway stations so that isn't a big deal. Highly recommend staying here and can't wait to come back.
