We had a bunk bed room. The upper bunk had an easy to use ladder. Each bunk had its own TV. We had a sink in our room. There were four private water closets on our floor, each with a toilet, sink, and shower. The towels were soft and absorbent. Everything was clean and in good working order. The room was quiet. The first-floor garden and the rooftop patio were very appreciated in the hustle & bustle of NYC. The hotel held our luggage after checkout while we were on a tour of the city. The location was within easy walking distance of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Rockefeller Center, Time's Square, and the subway system. NYPD Precinct 17 and an FDNY fire station were only a block away, but we did not notice much in the way of city noises. Off-site parking was an easy walk (even with luggage), and Pod 51 validated our ticket for a good discount.

We have arrived to the hotel later than expected however we were greeted and given our room with no issues. There is a 50usd cover which you have to pay before you get your room, but I received it back on my card the same day. The room was quite small - however it was not uncomfortable at all. The "shared bathroom" might look scary if you are used to different, but it was actually 4 bathrooms (and indicators in the room which bathroom is available at all times) and we never had an issue. The place is close to most central locations, it is a perfect choice for your stay.

the location is great, literally in the middle of Manhattan so if you like to walk and explore the city on foot it is the best option as you can walk both uptown and downtown. The neighbourhood has plenty of restaurants and it is relatively quite, not Times Square vibe, which I found great. I can only recommend to book spacious room, at least 20 square meters. And, yes, the rooftop is great add on, where you can have a drink and enjoy the end of the day.

Although I chose the option of a shared bathroom, the room had a little sink and a hairdryer! That's useful! The room was not large but it had everything I needed to be comfortable. I liked the decoration of the place and everyone was nice there. Pod51 is very comfortable and it is well located, just 2/3min walking to a subway station and it is in the middle of Manhattan! Perfect choice and I'm really glad I took it!

Great location, great staff, great use of a small space with the storage under the bed and alongside the bed. The staff was always cleaning and it showed - besides the normal wear and tear of a hotel I felt clean and comfortable. I was also pleased with how quiet it was. Didn't hear other guests and because it's on a side street the traffic noise was minimal. HOT water!!
