United States of America Cheap Holidays

Staff was very gracious upon arrival. If you are going to spend time in your hotel room, this is not for you. But if you’re planning to be out and about all day, Pod 51 is perfect. The little cafe is great if you need a quick bite and coffee. Shared bathrooms are clean but get a private room if you’re at all squeamish about wearing shower shoes when showering. Bottom line, this is a great, clean, energetic place but not luxurious.

Hotel was quaint and charming! The beds were comfortable and clean. Staff was super helpful and even let us borrow an umbrella and were really quick with food recommendations and subway directions! Loved our stay…would stay here again.

I have stayed at Pod39 twice and have been very satisfied based on the reasonable price. It is like a chic dorm room, very streamlined to basic essentials in terms of furnishings, design of the bathroom and the room is quite small. What is great is maid service everyday making the bed, new towels, etc. Pod39 is also a great location right next to Grand Central Station to take the subway system within walking distance to major cultural places like the Museum of Modern Art. They also serve a complimentary breakfast. My only recommendations are to provide a few more toiletry items and perhaps a few free breakfast items.
