In the heart of the city, at a reasonable price.

I really loved the rooftop view and the hot showers!
Nicole, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room was fine. Expectedly sparse. The bathrooms appeared clean, but the showers were disgusting. The drains were clogged and there were moths everywhere. I would not recommend staying here.
HIllias, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Expensive for what it was, even in NYC. There is absolutely no sound-proofing so paying the Friday/Saturday night rate felt insulting. NYC is the city that never sleeps so if you hear everything going on then you don't either.
Nels, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location is great and the price is affordable. The room is small but comfortable and there is a safe in it. All you need to visit New York.

Good place for the price

POD 51 is in a convenient location. Staff was helpful/friendly. A small minimal basic room that is good for a couple of nights stay.

Ok which is ok if that is your goal

Toilet was too low for an older person to get off of. AC didn’t work but was necessary to circulate air.
Cynthia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We have stayed at Pod 51 since it started. This stay was great as we love the location as well as the French restaurant next door. It is getting a bit tired looking in some areas but that wouldn’t keep us away yet.
Su M, 4-night trip

An excellent choice if you can live in a fairly small room. Very nice location in midtown Manhattan east side.
