Reviews of New York Hotels »
A great hotel for a great price!
Advantages: Excellent rooms, friendly staff, transportation links, facilities near by. Disadvantages: Lifts can only fit 2/3 people with suitcases in.
...near to the city and that has good transportation links.
We are hoping to go back to NYC next year and we would definately go back to the Belleclaire.
Hopefully this review has been helpful for anyone looking to stay at the Belleclaire or is just going to NYC. ...

Review of Belleclaire Hotel, New York City

Pretty decent budget hotel in the Big Apple
Advantages: Good price, good location Disadvantages: Bad shower, stuffy room
...GRAND TOTAL FOR THE HERALD SQUARE HOTEL: 7/10 (52/70 to be exact)
I'm giving 3 stars, due to the small but irritating problems we had as explained above. If I was to stay again, I trust I would be able to give it 4 stars.
Would I stay the again?:
When we stayed at the Herald, it was going through a series of renovations. Which meant that we could hear workmen too-ing and fro-ing outside our door and as we left each morning. They left ... ...which weren't appreciated, but weren't too much of a hindrance either, if I'm honest. It's also worth mentioning that the hotel as a strict no smoking policy throughout. But would I go back? You know what? I think I would. I've stayed in better, cheaper and closer (to Times Square) hotels before in New York, so if these were unavailable, I would check this one out again. The street area looks a bit scabby and daunting, but we never had any reason ...

Great Hotel
Advantages: Amenities Close-by Disadvantages: Noise if window open from street
I stayed here about a year and a half ago now. I went to New York for a college trip.
There was 6 of us to a one bedroom suite, two double beds and one double pull-out sofa bed. It was a comfortable few nights sleep. The room also had a bathroom and small kitchenette. The kitchenette had a microwave, stove, kettle etc. Both the bedroom and living room had a tv.
Our heating wasn't working in the living room, so we informed reception. They sent someone ... ...about 11.30pm.
The only slight problem was our room was facing Broadway and if you left the window open you would wake up from the morning traffic if a light sleeper!
The subway station is a little bit of a walk but not too far. The hotel is within walking distance of Central Park. There is a little supermarket directly opposite the hotel. There is a cafe next to the hotel with Starbuck's directly across from that. ...

Milford Plaza : Okay for the rate we paid
Advantages: Deli and Pub downstairs, near to Times Square/Broadway Disadvantages: Quite noisy, room was basic
I stayed at the Milford Plaza on my first trip to New York and had no idea about the city at all. The hotel looks great from the lobby with escalators from the street level and it has a deli, gift shop and pub right underneath. There was always someone on duty by the lifts, always checking that you had a room key so it was fairly secure. It was in a great location, right on Times Square and next to the Broadway Theatres so there was lots to do right ... ...we didn't even have any power when we made it up there. It was quickly resolved though and we were able to settle in. Our room was pretty basic - just the beds, a chair and tv on a stand - and I kept getting a static shock whenever I opened the door from walking on the carpet. There was a wardrobe which had an ironing board and iron in it, and was big enough to hang clothes and store any purchases. On the first night I encountered a huge bug that ...

Don't count on staying, even if you book
Advantages: The location is OK Disadvantages: Unhelpful staff, poor customer service. No guarantee of a room even with booking
...give the impression that the West Side Inn was a good place to stay if (and only if) the only thing you were looking for was a safe place to sleep. Make no mistake about it, this was the only thing I needed and so I booked a room for myself and my partner so we could travel the 3500 miles from the UK and see the sights of New York.
A not surprising amount of review space has been given to just how unorganized this hostel is. My own experience was ... ...hotels the receptionist at the West Side phoned had a free room for the nights we were staying as I can't imagine any assistance would have been offered had this not been the case. No apologies were offered and the casual way we were told we would 'just have to stay somewhere else' combined with the number of travellers who have had similar experiences suggests this is regular occurance at the West Side Inn. Avoid. ...
