Pod 51 - نيويورك

إنه فندقٌ رائع، رغم أن الغرف صغيرة إلا أنها كانت مثالية لقضاء عطلة طويلة بنهاية الأسبوع، وقد أقمت في غرفة بها سرير بطوابق، كما كانت الحمامات مشتركة أيضا، ولكنني لم اضطر أبدا إلى الإنتظار حتى يفرغ الحمام، وكانت جميعها نظيفة للغاية طوال الوقت. كذلك كان موقع الفندق مثاليا وبه العديد من البارات والمطاعم القريبة، و كان يبعد أيضاً مسافة عشر دقائق سيرا على الأقدام عن شارع "fifth Avenue". سوف أقيم به مرة أخرى بكل تأكيد.

لقد كانت هناك بطانية واحدة خفيفة، ولم تكن هناك أية بطانيات إضافية، ولم يكن بإمكاني إغلاق الأباجورات جيدا، لذلك فكان هناك بعض الأضواء بالغرفة، كذلك المدفأة لم تكن تعمل. وعندما كنت أقوم بتسجيل الدخول كان هناك شخصا واحدا فقط بمكتب الإستقبال، بالإضافة غلى طابور طويل من البشر الصابرين الذين ينتظرون دورهم في تسجيل الدخول. هناك الكثير من الفنادق الأخرى الأفضل، والتي أسعارها تتساوى مع أو تزيد قليلا عن أسعار هذا الفندق بنفس المنطقة.

لقد استمتعت به تماما، سوف أقيم به ثانيةً، ورغم أن الغرفة كانت أشبه بالغرف التي توجد في مساكن الطلبة، إلا أنها كانت وافية للغرض الذي كنت أريده تماما، حيث أنني ذهبت إلى هناك ببساطة لكي أنام وأستحم فقط، وكان الموقع يبعد نحو 20 دقيقة سيرا على الأقدام عن ميدان تايمز كما كان يسهل الوصول إلى المترو أيضا ولكن من طريق آخر. سوف أوصي بالتأكيد بالإقامة هناك.

كان الفندق أقل من توقعاتي على كافة المستويات، فالفراش كان في حجم سرير الأطفال، لأن طولي هو6 أقدام، فلم تكن المرتبة تتسع لجسدي بالكامل، وقد كانت الحمامات مشتركة ولكنها كانت قذرة تماما، وكان التكييف الهوائي يصدر هواءا ساخنا، أما جهاز التليفزيون فكان في حجم " الآي باد" الذي كان معي...لا أوصي به لأي شخص طوله أكثر من 5 أقدام.

كان الفندق جيدا، ولكن الغرفة كانت صغيرة للغاية، كما كانت الحمامات مشتركة.

Everything in thw hotel room worked the way it was supposed to. This hotel is starting to get expensive for what it is but it is still not a bad place for the midtown location.

Everything was fine but there are a couple of things to be aware of. The room is very small so much that the bed in my room was perpendicular to the head board. Also make sure you read the fine print as there are rooms which don;t have en suite facilities.

The room was barely big enough to move around in. Extremely minimal. I would never stay here again! It seems to attract Europeans who are used to tiny rooms.

Great location, rate better than most hotels, but the rooms are smaller than a cabin on a cruise ship. Shared baths are clean , and easy. Tv's are small, and pillows are the worst. They need better mattress also. That's why the rooms are less than 150. You get what you pay for !

The hotel and staff are terrific. The room is extremely well designed -- as long as you like things small, well organized, and tidy. Lots of places to creatively put stuff away. We had our own compact yet well thought out bathroom. But a couple of times I used the communal one down the hall and it was a lot more "okay" than I thought it would be. Don't know that I would ever go the "shared bath" route; but in a pinch... Highly recommend Pod 51. Somewhat surprisingly :-)

I stayed one night in anticipation of spending a few days at my daughter's home. I didn't want to spend a lot of money but wanted to be in this vicinity as my daughter works there. I read the reviews which were positive and thought, "It's only one night!" It was what I expected (per the reviews). Rooms are small, but clean. Felt like I was back in Paris! I actually slept with the windows open! It was that quiet. The concierge was most helpful. I was able to leave my luggage for the day as I explored the area. The best French restaurant is next door. Famous Ess-man Bagels and Dos Caminos are right around the block. It is 4 blocks from the United Nations. Great location. I would stay there again as well as recommend it to anyone who just needs a convenience place to stay.

Pod51 is fine for a short stay in NYC. The room was tiny but adequate. Clean and modern with a helpful staff and very nice lounge on the roof and lobby. It's great for a short one or two night stay.

Liked the noon checkout time and the 2:00pm check-in. Great location, wonderful rooftop sitting area, a comfortable lobby restaurant with a nice outdoor deck and delicious & reasonably priced breakfast options. The rooms are very small but they have all the amenities you need...this hotel model may not be for everyone.

Room so small its actually cool, like staying in a bunk in a ship complete w metal sink. But this is one of the City's best bargains - clean, efficient and kinda fun. Will stay over and over. Clientele is high end, well dressed but this is about great value and cant beat the location!

Ok but considering there are often special prices in NY this is on the high side for a pea 'pod' size room.

I totally enjoyed the roof deck and garden area , while having a latte from the hotel cafe. It was a wonderful way to start and end the day of running around the city! Room was nice for sleeping. This stay, I had a private bathroom and next time, I might try the shared bathrooms.

Dirty,small,noisy,uncomfortable , well used. No A/C, elevators not working. Never ever again

Hotel rooms in NYC tend to be small - Pod rooms are smaller! But up-dated, well-designed, clean & comfortable. Pod 51 is in a great Mid-town location on the eastside with many good restaurants and the subway a couple of blocks away. It was quiet. The bathrooms down the hall were clean tile + marble, good fixtures. Only complaints: insufficient pillows and no in-room coffee maker! I don't need a hair-dryer; I do need a coffee machine!

My twin bunk room was nothing more than I expected, and nothing less. There was no line for the shared WC or shower. For half the cost of fancier hotels, it certainly meet my needs.

This hotel is clean, comfortable and in a great location, within walking distance of Times Square! Would definitely stay here again on a return trip to New York. My only small complaint was that the WiFi signal was very bad in our room on the 4th floor. But apart from that, there was a great atmosphere in this hotel and a pretty cool vibe!

This was the second hotel I stayed in, on the way back via NY. I had experienced better value from my prior hotel in the region, which was only marginally more expensive but significantly better on all fronts. Pod 51 is comfortable and provides a place to sleep, but that's about it.

The room was smaller than I thought it would be, but we got accustomed to it. Friendly and helpful desk, concierge and snack bar staff. You must visit the rooftop garden deck at night for the splendid views. the location could not have been better. There were all kinds of shops and restaurants in easy walking distance as well as public transportation options.

If you offer free WiFi its a good idea to actually have some signal strength in the rooms themselves. There was really no internet in this hotel at all. Must have disconnected five times within a period of an hour before I just gave up. Hallway noise goes right into your room. I have stayed at plenty of NYC hotels (and a lot of them quite small) and there are any number of better options for low cost hotel rooms.

If you are looking for value without much compromise... this hotel is great. I will stay again.

Yes, you have to be comfortable in a small space and sharing a bathroom (rooms do have sinks). There is a small desk to get work done and you can go downstairs and work on one of the dining tables or sit on the couch. Location is perfect for the subway or to grab a cab. The downside is not enough ventilation on the floor and especially the bathrooms with showers. Leave the light/fan in the bathroom.

Rooms very small and bed not very comfortable. Location is great. I would stay there again due to location and price.

I enjoyed my stay very much. Check-in was a breeze, and the staff was always very helpful and friendly. I was in town for a 3 day conference, and it was exactly what I needed in terms of space. I will definitely stay here again. One detail to point out is that there aren't irons in the rooms, so ask the front desk for an iron if you have anything that needs pressed.

This is a great little quirky hotel that is close to a ton of nice restaurants and bars. If you're looking for places to go to dinner and have drinks nearby, this is a fantastic location as there are ~20 bars/restaurants right around the corner. The hotel itself is fine - small rooms and small bathrooms but we were only there to sleep so it was fine.

The room is teeny and the bed is hard, but for the price relative to other New York hotels, it is worth it. I had a room with a shared bathroom, which was clean and fine. The room did have its own basin. Pod is walking distance to Times Square and Broadway and there are lots of nice restaurants nearby. Concierge can organise an airport shuttle, but I was annoyed that it had to be paid for with cash. I would stay here again for its convenience and price.

Overall it was a good place for the cost in the city. However the rooms really are extremely small and the beds well I have slept on better. Didn't get much sleep there my only night as I tend to be a lite sleeper and with the noises of the city outside and the 2" gap under my door I unfortunately heard every late nighter that returned to the hotel. The place is probably best suited for the tourist and has a great European vibe to it. Great location as it is only a block and a half from the Lexington (6) subway line.

The room is very efficient (small) but did have everything required. Location was key - 2 blocks from subway. All areas of hotel were clean, well maintained but hallway lighting on floor was dim.

Overall, pretty good. We forgot to tip the cleaning service on a day-to-day basis on a 5-day stay, so on day 4, the cleaning service decided not to clean our room. Partially our fault, but maybe this point should be made more explicit for european.asian travelers who are not used to tipping for room cleaning.

very good hotel, everything is close by, times square about 20 min walking, the only thing that the room was soooooooo tight. otherwise everything else was cool and clean.

Dollar for dollar it offered excellent value for money. Efficient service. Small but professionally presented room. Shared bathroom was of good quality. Lobby area very bright clean and well presented. Very helpful staff especially the two consierge. Complimentary wi fi a very welcome bonus. By Mid manhattan prices good value for money. Would def consider a return.

Stayed alone over the weekend after a tough week long course nearby to see some friends. Even though it was shared bathrooms, it was never a problem and all was very clean. Staff were very nice and the area was very good - central and felt very safe. Would totally recommend it!

A very small room for such a high price. No complaints on Service, room cleanliness, convenience of location, etc
