"I don't recall seeing anything that said I'd have to climb 3 flights of antiquated stairs to get to the room I reserved. The toilet paper in the shared bathroom ran out and when I asked for more, the manager was surpised there wasn't anymore in the bathroom. She went to get another roll - and handed me a <1/2 roll of toilet paper! The towel I was given was clean, but thin and much used previously."

Top Central Ward Hotel Reviews

Night Hotel Broadway

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great room was slightly nasty but not unbearable I would go and stay again for a last minute change greatful just wish was more clean but the staff was awesome and the cleaning ladies were amazing they help as much as they possibly can I just think it’s an old outdated place and needs a lil makeover!"

NEW YORKER BY LOTTE HOTELS

8/10 Good

"The room was clean but the bathroom was very dated and in poor condition. The diner attached to the hotel was convenient but slow service and mediocre food made it disappointing (this is NYC) there are better food options close by. Penn Station is next door so getting anywhere in the city is easy. The noise level was higher than expected even though I was on a high floor and was constant throughout the night."
