Gatsby Hotel

In de buurt van het Isle of Man en de New York University is de prijs/prestatieverhouding niet slecht, maar de faciliteiten zijn een beetje oud

Booked this hotel for a colleague on business trip. Her comments was this is a motel not a hotel, door has a break-in mark, toilet was terrible. Considering we have paid about SGD390 a night, I was totally not expecting this and had to spend extra time to search for other hotels now.

I chose this hotel because of the price and location which is near Mt Sinai Beth Israel hospital. It was a rainy day and the hotel was easy to find. It is located at a corner. You go up a short flight of stairs and reach the small lobby. Front desk ladies are very professional and pleasant . Lobby was bare bones with a small seating area and a stand with some NYC brochures. The room was pretty basic. Doors had a good lock. Our Full Bed was clean , pillows were nice, plump enough and fresh and the white bed sheets were fresh and nicely starched. Air conditioner was newer and worked very well and the bathroom was also very clean. It was a relief to come to a nice cool room with a clean bed after a long day of walking around. However it isn’t a luxury hotel. The paint job on the walls is fresh but is poorly done and one of the black out curtains had one hook missing so the edge was dangling. The closet had an ironing board but no iron . The coffee table had one mug and a couple of packet of instant coffee and cream but no coffee maker. Turns out you have to walk to the front desk and ask for the iron and coffeemaker if you needed one. There was a small lcd TV which was working. There were two clean white bath towels in the bathroom but no hand towels . At least the towels were clean and fresh. The floor , shower curtain and the tub was also newly scrubbed and very clean. Toiletries were sp**** . One single bottle of shampoo. They were out of soap bars. I had to go to the front desk and ask for more towels and another bottle of shampoo which they apologized for but gladly provided. So, would I go back again in the future? Yes. For one night it is more than what I need. It is a clean basic bed and shower place to crash into after a long day of walking. If I had to stay more than a night I would bring my own soap and coffee maker next time.

Diabolical · We were supposedly in an upgraded room, the room was in the basement with a skylight at head height Fire escapes were blocked TV – didn't work Complimentary High-Speed Wireless Internet – didn't work Iron and Ironing Board – no iron in room In-Room Coffee Maker – 1 cup in the cupboard no kettle No hairdyer The telephone didn’t work Workspace with In-Room Safe – no safe In addition to the above the paint was peeling including around the electrical sockets, the bath had mould around it and there was only one set of towels which they didn’t resolve.

Stayed here while on a solo trip. It was the best! I’m 22 and just needed a place to lay my things and my head at the end of the night. It was the perfect size room, check-in/check-out was easy, and the staff were all so pleasant. I checked in with Shelly and she was so nice. I will definitely stay here again the next time I visit NY.

"Queen Deluxe" does not actually have a queen bed. It's definitely a full. When we questioned the size of the bed they assured us that it is a queen size room. The bed itself initially feels comfy but my back was sore the next morning like I slept on a really old mattress. It is also is supposed to have a view vs the regular queen room... not sure what they mean by view but this is not what I expected. The room is supposed to have a fridge but didn't. They did bring one to our room (and quickly!) when we asked about it. TV doesn't work. The room is very clean and the house keeping staff was nice - the only positives. Location is ok, in Manhattan, near Chinatown, Statue of Liberty, and 9/11 Memorial. Pictures included of the full (not queen) size bed that nicely fits my small husband and 8 year old daughter. Also of the "view".

Stayed here for a night and thought it was great! My room was very clean, decent size for 1 person, and had all the basics. The front desk staff was also super nice. If you’re looking for an affordable place to stay in a good area, I would highly recommend this place!

Perfect location for what we were there to do and see. The staff are what make the place great. One might even say they were magical! When I need to return to New York, this will be my go to place. I’ll be back!

Everything was magical. I would recommend this hotel, everyone was very nice. The housekeepers were great. It was in a great location. We basically walked to all destinations and took the train too. We will definitely be returning.
