Amazing
I have stayed here at the Pod Hotels Time Square and every time it is perfect. It is comfy and affordable and it’s my budget especially considering we were going to a city where we were not spending extensive time in our hotel room. Even thought that is the case for many others their rooms are still always clean and perfect and staff welcoming, helpful, and inviting. I will always recommend.

Excellent & Efficient
This was our first time staying at a Pod Hotel and it won't be the last. The entire experience was seamless and the hotel was so modern and efficient. It had every thing that we needed, including an exceptional view of the Empire State Building. We will definitely be back.

Super clean pod for mother-daughter trip.
My college-aged daughter and I love this Pod set up. We each have our own personal space with the bunks. When we are in NYC, we don’t spend much time in the room except to sleep so this is a great set up for us. The hotel has always been exceptionally clean and the staff is friendly. I appreciate all of the charging options in each bunk as I have several things that need to be plugged in at night. Staying in the bunk pod is a different mindset but it really works for my daughter and I for our NYC weekends. Love the easy access to 42nd street station and so many restaurants within a 10 minute walk.

Great hotel. Great compact room. Checks all boxes
Great room. Small but sometimes small isn’t bad. This room had all you needed at a great price near popular places. Great location. And great unobstructed views from room.

Pod 42nd Street
I had stayed at a Pod before at another location, so I knew the rooms were small. I wish the little reading lights over the bed had worked so I could read w/o getting up to turn off lights. Also the bathroom light turns on automatically so that woke me up when my BF had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. Also no facial tissue. On the website the hotel says it has a restaurant (Serrafina), but we found out it’s closed. They should disclose this on the website. Also, upon arrival , I was charged substantially more than what hotels.com stated on their site. It’s a nice hotel but I’m not going to return because it’s super expensive & overpriced for the value.
